As you will know from some of my recent posts I've been swotting up on digital manipulation techniques. I have currently raided the local libary for books on the subject (and photography in general) and one of the tips was on that on sunny days with lovely blue skies you should take lots to get a few skies "in the bank". An interesting concept! I then remebered a series of photos that I took a couple of summers ago of some fields of poppies but was disappointed by the pics as the sky was too grey. So I set to work finding a better sky to see what I could do. The process and results are below plus a few other alternatives!
