Taken at Lake Junaluska, NC when the sun began to peek through the clouds after raining. Originally more blue/gray, but adjusted the colors in Paint Shop Pro 7. All adjustments would be dpc "legal."
An allusion to the fact that Christian believers are lookin for the return of Jesus Christ in the future.

Love your shot, but especially the thought behind it! Composition works well, and I love the light shining from the clouds, it gives the shot a very powerful feel.
It could us a little neatimagin on the blue in the sky and it also suffered from some jpeg compression as can be seen by the jaggedness of the lines on the cross, but it is still an excellent image however and an interesting prediction for the future. The colors and lighting are really nice. I assume this was photoshopped together. If not, wow, what a scene.
With the many bleak entries into this challenge, this interpretation of the future is uplifting. The cross looks jagged on my screen though, detracting from the overall quality of the shot itself.
