I took this from the home dugout on Tuesday at around 5 pm. 2 hours later it was raining. Does this work?

John, love the contrails in the sky. I find myself staring up there for a long time. Don't know if it relates to the ballpark. But pretty nonetheless.

My advice on this is to remove the distortion and make the 3 lights parallel and vertical.

Yeah, I should remove the distortion. Trouble is, MS Digital Image 9 doesn't seem to have a tool for doing that. At least I haven't found it.

I've said it before around here, but I think the best landscape shots (and I'd classify this as a landscape) have a foreground, middle-ground, and background, with a logical progression through them -- a path of the eye to follow, as it were. The better shots you see seem to be taken with a wideangle and angled.

In this shot, for example, you might see a home plate, and someone at first and then the rest of your picture. As it stands it seems too two-dimesional and boring.

It's a little late and I'm typing a little too directly, but hopefully you get my point and remember the positive spirit in which I'm trying to offer an opinion, which may or may not be of use to you.

Understand what you're saying. I just happened to notice how the sky looked that day, so I squeezed one off. Not the most ideal circumstance for a landscape, but what the heck. I'm not allowed in the dugout during games, so this was my best opportunity at the time. I might see if I can get a better shot from a different vantage point on a sunny day with some nice puffy clouds up there during a game. I know it can be done.
