A nice idea, and a good composition. Maybe a bit heavy on contrast and saturation?

Thanks for looking everyone.

Tb2- here's an edit with less contrast/saturation. I think I was trying to make the clouds in the first edit more dramatic. I guess this is a bit more true to life- Fort Huachuca is a pretty dusty, dull place to begin with.

The first was definitely oversaturated in the sky, the contrast could've been lighted just a little. The second one, the sky looks a bit dull and flat.

Thanks for the input. For the first edit, I did several curves layers with just slight adjustments in each. For the second one I just did one curves layer and that was the only adjustment. I'll play around with it a bit more and see if I can't get it to balance out. I tend to like more contrast and saturation in a shot, so as I'm learning the ins and outs of photoshop I go a tad overboard sometimes

I like the second one. A dirt road running off into the desert always beckons me.

Nice shot V! I think an edit somewhere between to two would be great.

Dirty place..

But great shot!

Love the idea.
