About This Image

I achieved this effect of the clouds by resizing it to 1000 pixels wide, turning the picture black and white, drastically modifying the heuristic levels, applying a smart blur at a 10 pixel radius and 7 threshhold, then applying an unsharp mask. The smart blur evened out the background sky, while the unsharp mask made the defined cloud edges crisp.

Great Job Brian!! I like how the white clouds against the darkness of the sky gives the view so much depth. Thanks for your steps, I'm going to give it a try.

You've done a great job with your cloudscape. The effects you've used have added a very dramatic look to your image, with the black and white emphasising this. :)
