 Took this shot while driving to Moncton on Friday. I liked the clouds so I took a few quick shots with my Canon SD300 point and shoot camera. Burned the sky and dodged the highway.

The image kinda blows, but I had fun trying to get an Ansel Adams look out of a snapshot. Learned a little big about dodging and burning.

Doesn't feel quite contrasty enough to me but still a very lovely picture.

while this has a wonderful range of tones, it also has an odd sense of needing a slight rotation.

The dodging is pretty obvious in this photo but still pleasing. Whether this is in Adams style I can’t really say but I like it…8

This is a great shot! Only complaint is a little to much noise in the sky. Good job overall.

the use of dodge & burn is too obvious; over done, doesn't look natural; very good depth of field
