I wish this challenge was scheduled in summer. Now in autumn, the prevalent type of clouds is the depressing kind stretching all over the sky in a particularly boring shades of grey.
But I'm satisfied how this image turned out, there was a bit of color in the sky because of sunset and processing pulled quite a bit of the boring image. Nothing special, but ok.
Edit: Topaz (spicify preset, tuned down a bit), curves, adamus sharpening resize, sfw.

Darn! From the thumbnail, I really wanted to love this one (the willow's silhouette appealed). Unfortunately, the full version is blurry, blown, and noisy.
