I was able to capture the storm clouds as they rolled over Manhattan yesterday from my office. I did three bracketed shots and merged them together in Lightroom. Looking for some feedback. I am happy with the results but feel there is always something I may be missing that can make the shot even better. Let me know.
Thanks.

For iPhone users - a new version of Bluristic has dropped (v1.8) which offers new features and significant improvements in stability & useability.
I am interested in learning Macro/Closeup photography and understanding that Focus Bracketing is a good part of the process, I thought I would give focus stacking a try.
Another visit to our garden using a vintage lens (Canon FD 50mm f/1.4) on my Canon R5. NOTE: With this lens the minimum focusing distance is 18" at which point you have 1/4" depth of field.
Was down in Austin for a bit on a work trip. I've always heard how beautiful the skyline is from the river.
Was a little let down by the clouds, but what can I do!
My two favourite images from my recent night time adventure in Tenerife. Foregrounds and skies were shot separately and blended in PS.

Nice mood, definitely a good catch .Maybe you can fix the reflections and the distortion on the Empire State building somehow? It seems to be leaning to the right.
I'm not sure which options you have in terms of composition, for next time maybe. The composition could be shifted left a bit, as the building on the right doesn't really add somethings for me and the sky scraper could be a bit more central.
Thanks for the feedback. This is very helpful.
I dont want to make some advertisement here, anyway the company is bankrupt, but they have an excellent tool to fix falling buildings.

Thanks. I think the angle of the empire state was how I was holding the camera when I shot the image. I could probably adjust that in Lightroom too.
Nice photo! you captured a great mood. Advise: it looks like you only want to show 50% of the details this photo has to offer.
Thanks. You noticed.
The green, purple light is distracting, and I would tone down the red one also. Apart from the empire needed straightening, there seems to be glare from the window showing on it. Love those clouds
