Another image from my attempt at photographing lightning. Taken from the balcony of our apartment, I had a ring side seat, so to speak.

Hi,

I thought the sky was so beautiful and full of detail and amazing light. So I wanted to see it without any of the distractions in the original pic.

I masked out all buildings and painted them black. I also cropped the shot to remove the wall in the left.

Obviously the photo is now smaller in size so this should be done before resizing. Oh, and I didn't add any frame because i think the black bottom and dark top actually works fine as is.

I hope you like the workshop, otherwise I'm sorry for ruining your already very pretty shot.

Cheers,
Jens
