Here's one that I took about a a week ago. This photo is still not as sharp as I would like but I sure love the way the sky looked. I would appreciate some CC on this photo.

Nice pic.

Next time remember to hit "insert" after attaching a pic and it will show up without clicking. I did it for you this time, but next time you can do it on your own. :D :)

The sky is amazing but the foreground needs some light and punch in it, if you have photoshop you could lift it nicely. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I agree, it's a moment captured.

Hope this helps, as your comment made me wonder:

"This photo is still not as sharp as I would like but I sure love the way the sky looked. I would appreciate some CC on this photo."

How can I make it sharper? (With solutions).

1. Poor quality lens (get a better prime lens)
2. Motion from a slow shutter speed (use a tripod)
3. ISO too high (use a tripod)
4. A bit out of focus (set the lens manually to infinity)

Other than those, I can't think of anything that would cause it to look soft. A tripod would be a good tool to start with. Then a better lens (if needed).

Finally, you have to go back to the same exact location, and ask God to rewind for you.

HTH, Matthew :)
