Description The clouds were amazing a couple of days ago, a good time to try out my new polarizing filter.
I didn't really color balance this right, what needs fixing?

its nice to see the rays of light piercing trough the clouds

i think you have to much highlights and a polariazing filter could make that little difference sometimes... though its kina tricky

i dont think the colouring is bad but the composition could be better... or angle if you like...
since you have the foreground with the streetlights and bushes i think it would be better to divide the two contrasting parts... earth and heaven if you like, in to more of a ecqual share of the total picture... not sure

At first I didn't understand what you meant but my friend pointed out I really have no focal point in this shot. Is that what you mean about the composition? I agree with you, but I really feel like this isn't my best work. I was kind of stretching just so I could show you something.
I'll keep what you said in mind though about giving each part equal shares the next time the clouds look nice.

to me its just a "shot"... there isnt a certain focal point as you said. i dont know where to look if you know what I mean. The rule of threads is a good tip:

The often-quoted "Rule of Thirds" says you should divide your frame into thirds and place your subject
at the intersection of those lines. It makes the viewer's eye travel around the frame and visit all
parts of it before eventually landing up on your subject.

Putting something dead centre in the middle of the frame "sticks" the eye to that spot.

good luck! go out and shoot!

the contrast is fantastic
like you said, the coloring is a little weird
i would change the coloring to all blue and gray
