Blue Skies and Clouds over a Desert Landscape
Blue Skies and Clouds over a Desert Landscape

On the US Hwy headed down to Alpine, TX and Big Bend National Park.

I used a Polarizer and Neutral Grad CEP filter and was able to bring out a dramatic view to the skies and clouds. I also used Aperture's dodge tool to darken the mountains off in the distance.
