    Before and After

    I posted this pic a couple of days ago, but after some constructive criticism (thanks PJ), I decided to give it another go. I set the exposure in the RAW file for the foreground, and then for the back, and then blended them. I also cropped a little differently. Do you think it needs more work, or is it looking alright? The top one is the old, the bottom one is the revised version...

    What a dramatic sky now. Good work.
    The image seems to have a yellow cast to me. I tried a color balance with the yellow/blue slider moved toward the blue sid a bit in all three ranges. Here's the result- it might have gone too far but I think the brush/ground around the trees looks more natural now.

    I always miss something...Forgot to readjust the WB in RAW, and didn't really even notice the tint. Thanks for pointing that out.
