It was an unseasonably mild, snow-less and cloudy afternoon in Red Wing atop Sorin’s Bluff in Memorial Park at the lookout. \u00a0I would not have typically thought about loading up the photo gear to venture out in these less-than-optimal\u00a0conditions; however, everything was at the ready and loaded from this morning when sunrise wasn’t visible at all – not even a glimmer. \u00a0I really wasn’t anticipating seeing any moving clouds in the frames and was thinking of focusing more on moving traffic on the city streets. \u00a0I was pleasantly surprised at what I was able to glean from the sky. \u00a0Lightroom recently added a very handy feature nestled in between\u00a0Clarity and Saturation – Dehaze.<\/p>\n

Graduated Filter with Dehaze. \u00a0FYI – a little goes a long way.<\/p>\n

This definitely provided some definition in the clouds making the scene more interesting. \u00a0Here is the completed\u00a0time-lapse video combining all three points of view that I captured. \u00a0I may have to give this vantage point a whirl after dark. \u00a0The light trails from the head\/tail lights produce a wonderful light show.<\/p>\n
