Re: [APML] B&W Sierra nightscape

Hi Dave -

I was thinking the sky needed to be darkened, thanks for the reinforcement..
:-)  I uploaded a revised image with a darker sky.

As far as cropping the sky, I know its a violation of the extension of the
rule of thirds <g> but I want to emphasize the land just as much as the sky.
I think I'll leave that as is.

Chris
