    Woah this is just great mate, love the cloud colors and texture! Nice comp too. I think the saturation is fine, but maybe a little bit of contrast/curves tweak to bring out some blacks/shadows a little more? Only sugestion I can think of mate, but well done!

  • STEViE VOiCE replied

    Cheers Jason. Appreciate the feedback. I’ll have another look at it and see if I can work on the shadows :o)

    Very nice, Stevie! This should at least make the top ten in this challenge. Where did you take it?

  • STEViE VOiCE replied 24 days ago

    Cheers Randy.
    It was taken at Point Lonsdale, Victoria, Australia.
    It’s my most visited spot for photography. Once I find a place I like I have trouble leaving…
