Description
That was one wicked storm, Duress Albania, HDR and this action [link] applied.*Updated...
Finally finished the realistic version, quite different from before, but it no longer looks like two separate photos stacked...
**Updated again...
hows about now?

I like this version, it really looks like the storm is threatening the heck out of the town ... yes, like others have said, the horizon glow is a little distracting, but not as bad as it could be. I do miss the saturated colors that are in the buildings of the other color versions of this shot, but that's just my opinion; I think if the colors were pulled up in the buildings on this version, you wouldn't get that menacing feel of the storm quite as well as you do here.

hooray, the horizon looks much better! I think what it is that I miss from the other shots is the great yellow of the one building - but like I said, I don't think you could have those colors and still keep the overall feel of this piece. I hate it when that happens, two different bits of two different versions that I love so much, but they just can't be combined because then it would look weird. But anyway, nice update, looking good! (getting sick of this shot yet? lol)

man, up the contrast on the buildings just a little and get that halo off the horizon and it will be golden (gallery ready) 60X80

Hi ! beautiful clouds.
It's too bad the white halo between the ground and the sky is very distracting.
Time to polish those photoshop skills

yes, yes, but the sun is behind them... and they look a little bright for the sky.
