This is the orignal picture, it was taken on October 26th, 2010. Since I was in the car I had to put this on sports mode. This was taken right in Bemidji.
This is the edited picture, I used curves, levels and Brightness/Contrast. The curves were set at a input of 171 and an output of 130. Brightness/Contrast was set at a brightness of -21 and a Contrast of -8.
This only thing I did with the level is changed the white to 223.
I like this one better because it was raining and it brings out the look in the sky that it was raining, I looks better with the darkness.
These will be where you will get to see my photos and you will also get to comment them. I hope you like what pictures i have taken because i really tried. Also, these pictures will be updated every week so be sure to comment them and check it out. And remember don't force the pictures to be perfect take them when people least expect it. The less expected the better the picture will turn out!!!

Everything that i do you will get to check it out. I've been really working on these pictures so you'll be able to see the different things i've been working on.

I think that it should be a little brighter, it's really dark. You could have used the dodge tool to brighten it, and still kept the sky how you like it showing the weather.
