Nebraska Sunrise

Say what you will about the boredom of Nebraska, but it certainly can be pretty at times.

This shot was taken at sunrise while on I-80 going to the Omaha airport.

The above picture was pretty much untouched, which is what I generally like. I try and get the end result to look as close to what I remember seeing from the viewfinder. Sometimes though I do like to have a bit of a play in Photoshop plus you’ve already seen some of my geeking out with HDR. Honestly I don’t know PS as well as I probably should. But meh.

The 2nd version is what CS4 did to the dng when I allowed it to auto white balance. I’m usually pretty good about setting the white balance correctly, but it’s saved me a couple of times when moving from sunlight to shade (or when the sun + clouds do it for me). This time it wasn’t saving my ass, but doing something a bit odd to the picture. Still pretty though.
