Took a straight shot of some clouds (on Velvia slide film) and decided to play around with the image. I Converted it to BW using the method outlined here (http://www.steeldolphin.com/tutorials_phototone.php)

The Modified image:
Cloud Call (http://www.steeldolphin.com/forum/cloudcall.jpg)

Except I didnt tone it.

Specs:
Nikon F80
Sigma AF D 28-200mm w/Cokin Circ Polarizer
Fuji Velvia (ISO 50)
Apeture/SS not recorded.

Comments welcome.

OMG
I didnt know clouds could be that interresting
Great photo!
Snoogie

It will be mine, oh yes, I will buy that camera.

heh, the F80s are nice, i prefer my older 801 though. Its heavier and more stable i think.
maybe thats just me though

Yeah I am pretty happy with it. It seems pretty solid. :)

I really like the mood in that photo, the BW really adds to it. The sky is so dark and ominous, yet with just enough light coming through as though somethig is about to happen.

At first I liked the color version better, but after flipping back and forth, I can't decide!

Pick up 1 for me while you are at it. ;) I would love to snag some pictures like this.
