Poor Izaak had to jump of this hay a few times and as a punishment for my slow shutter finger, I promised that I would jump off it afterwards (pics to follow)
Photomatix single jpg, open in PSCSII lucisarts, took the reds out a bit, duplicate layer, curves and then set layer opacity to get the clouds dark and nice, layer mask on the duplicate layer with a black pen to bring back parts I wanted from the underlying layer, gradiant fill layer, cropped, noise ninja, add border and text, submit.
After my disaster in the expert editing free study I was a bit worried about submitting another 'fantasy' look entry for motivational.. But I'm a stubborn type of guy and only submit an image if I like it no matter what the score is. I am just thinking about guessing the score on this one so I will aim low and hope for a high (if that makes sense)
Est score. - 6.0
dream score - 6.9

Definitely a great inspirational set up. Original quote? Very nice. The only nitpick I have is the dodge and burn around your subject and sky. I suspect it's intentional, and that's ok, it's just not for me I'm afraid.
OK, how the heck did you do that? Great detail, cloud formation, texture, coloring. I don't really understand the meaning, but I'm rating high on the photograph. 8
