Hope you see the "good" in this in more ways than one. :)
Dreary, cloudy day in the sunshine state. These ships are huge and it's exciting to watch them leave the port. Everyone happy, cheering and waving.
Converted from Raw and tone mapped from one image. Sharpened a tad, adjusted levels, curves, slight color adjustments with color balance, hue/saturation and selective color, curves again, tried to bring out the dark clouds and make the photo have the feeling it did in person. Ran NN and saved for web.

Yep! This is in fact good -- very good -- in every sense of the word. The challenge fit. The subject. The sky. The focus. . .And a great score togo with it :)
