I took this with my Canon Power Shot 950 IS Point and Shoot, which has since died. I thought it had some possibilities for an HDR image. I think that this has convinced me to purchase a $100 11.5 hour course in HDR photography. I missing too many techniques to enable me to produce better images.

One Beautiful capture Stanton.. Looks like a storm is about to rain on your parade.. LOL.. Joanie Holliday

Artist Reply: We were on our way back to my cousins home after it had rained on our young nephews baptism on the in Sterling Heights. The sun was beginning to set and I was mostly interested in the clouds after the storm which creates what is called a fractured sky which is a result of cold unstable air following the storm front. A bit of weather info for you.

What a gorgeous moody sky! Wonderful photo!

Artist Reply: We encountered a lot of unusual whether on this trip. There were a number of freak storms and tornados and tornado warnings. I also like the intensely saturated colors in the store fronts and cars in the parking lot. I wish there was a little more of the interior lighting to bring out, but it was an early Sunday evening and and all the stores were pretty much closed.
