Haven't had much of a chance to leave the house this month, with the exception of doctor visits and a few walks with the baby. One of those walks we got started much later than we wanted, but it ended up working well, as I got a tremendously colorful sky to photograph. I shot this with HDR in mind, but my conversion wasn't working out, so then I moved over to Topaz Adjust. I love what that program did to this scene. Instead of overdoing things, it brought out all of the natural colors and contrasts that were visible with the naked eye.
Keen viewers may notice this is the Ice Age Scenic Trail, a place I have taken a number of my entry images on this summer. It's one of my favorite places to go with my camera as there is always something to find worth photographing.
