    I closed my eyes and saw this

    T'was in a dream when it came to me...that's one version of this picture.

    The truth is...I pick out a "subject" in the trinket section of the local Salvation Army Store
    and went from there.

    I closed my eyes and saw this

    If it were mine I would make the BG a little darker and get the windows to glow a bit more. I like it though nice work.

    Definitely more imagination than I have. As for the colors you asked about, I would only try moving the histogram more to the right.

    FWIW...I shot against a bed sheet assuming that I would put it into clouds.
    Anyone have other suggestions? It's sitting on my desk waiting your ideas.

    Perhaps show it in the context of a tornado.

    Re: I closed my eyes and saw this

    That's quite good William,

    Regarding colour (in first shot), the only thing I'd suggest is to try to match the direction of light on clouds with that on the ornament.

    It's not bad now - and actually quite difficult to say where the cloud light is coming from, possibly behind, which perhaps suggest the whole needs to be a bit darker, or find an alternate cloud image to work with.

    I am impressed by your imagination and dedication, Dave

    I thought of that Mike but, don't have a picture of a cow to go with it.

    Thanks to you all for your pats on the back...let me assure you, they are appreciated.
