About two frames before this was better, but there wasn't the sense of speed from the clouds that was in this frame. Since our assignment/contest for the day in my IG group was 'speed', I went with this one.

I'll get around to processing the other frame eventually.

Still haven't started on my SIL's wedding, though

First, NOT MY PIC!! One of the friends I made during my tour of duty in Hawaii now works for the Hawaii Dept. of Forestry, and caught this Hawaiian Hawk last week out in the woods.

The Hawaiian hawk or ?io (Buteo solitarius) is a raptor of the Buteo genus endemic to Hawai?i, currently restricted to the Big Island. Buteos tend to be easily recognized by their bulky bodies relative to their overall length and wingspan. The ?io is the only hawk that is native to Hawai?i, and fossil evidence indicates that it inhabited the island of Hawai?i, Moloka?i, O?ahu, and Kaua?i at one time.[2] Today, it is known to breed only on the Big Island, in stands of native ?ohi?a lehua (Metrosideros polymorpha) trees. The species is protected as an endangered species in the United States.

(Apparently pronounced "you-RAY" by the locals.) The waterfall is almost entirely hidden from view behind a very narrow slit in the box canyon. This is the stream immediately below the falls from that slit (positioned behind the camera in this view) as it flows out of the "box" toward the town.

Bowe Bergdahl, center, leaves the Fort Bragg Courthouse dressed in civilian clothes after being sentenced to a dishonorable discharge, demotion to E-1, and forfeiture of $1,000 a month for 10 months. Bergdahl had pleaded guilty to all charges including desertion and misbehavior before the enemy. These charges came from Bergdahl walking off his post in Afghanistan in 2009.

Basically what I'm trying to do is increase tonal contrast between light and dark areas, sharpen, and increase "depth". A lot of it is you just have to play around with Tone and Presence. And cropping to "increase" image size.

This is the as-shot version.
