Joseph Mallord William Turner sky version 2 by jackies365

Joseph Mallord William Turner sky version 2

since the clouds were amazing tonight the sun breaking through the swift moving rain clouds I took 7 shots and combined into a panorama in elements then took back into lightroom where I only used the sliders in the basic panel (again excluding the clarity, vibrance and saturation sliders) and this time I used a slight u curve in the tone curve panel. for the artist's challenge.
A little scary looking. Also makes me think of the scene of Scarlet O'Hara in Gone with the Wind, when Atlanta was burning.

@flygirl @lisamccloskey his paintings are extremely rich in depth and color! Lisa I am experimenting with different techniques in Lightroom to see what I can get out of it. these clouds were the original blue and some pale pink that skies come in most frequently. all of the color here is smoke and mirrors! lol!!! "there is always hope, hope for a better day, hope for a new dawn!"

Sounds pretty complicated to me, but this is great!

Great work! A bit off-centre on the right is a small loose bit of cloud, which looks like a little hopping dinosaur in a gigantic land(cloud)scape. ;)
