Stormy skies above Kua Bay.
I usually don't like heavily grunged up images, but in this scene, it was what I felt needed to be done to convey the feel that I had for the moment.
I used the usual controls of lightness and tones in Photoshop, but the main rendering steps were done using both Topaz Labs Adjust and Clarity filters,
as well as the new Macphun Intensify Pro software plugins. These are great if not overused, and I usually bring back the effect to only 40-80% of the original alteration.
