After the storms we had some pretty dramatic sunsets!

We had a bunch of thunderstorms rolling through late afternoon last week. Here’s a bunch from the pretty crazy sunsets that followed the storms. Feedback always welcome! Thanks for looking.

Servus Peg, lovely images ... one little point ... I wonder what you're doing with that specifically that you tend to have a visible halo on your images .. it's not a big problem here but for example first image has halo the roof rather visible

Thanks for pointing that out I hadn't noticed it. Not sure what it could be on that one specifically. I have been taking a lot of sunset photos lately so lots of backlighting. I checked the raw file and the roof was pretty invisible due to the backlighting and the location against the treeline so I did have to lift the shadows quite a bit and bumped the exposure up. It's a single shot no layers but I did use the auto mask when I sharpened. Probably didn't help. I'll keep an eye out for that in the future.
