It's tempting to download some of those clouds to use in combination
with OnOne's PerfectMask program to use as replacements for blah
skies. However, I stay somewhat honest and have a large folder of
cloud and sky shots that I've taken.


About a month ago we had a discussion in my CC about the use of
textures. Said discussion was made in context of it being OK to use
presets. The conclusion that all textures must be those of the maker.
the distinction being that in one case the maker's pixels were simply
being manipulated, while textures were not the maker's pixels. We are
still waiting a decision from our governing body. IMHO, using a preset,
would be equivalent to you doing the manipulation on my images, and me
submitting it as my own work.


Florida cloud and sky images aren't as good, though. We don't see
those dramatic storm-threatening skies and golden skies that your page
has. Florida sky is solid pale, almost white, blue, nice blue with
puffy white clouds, gray with darkish clouds, or blah gray.


Take a short trip. Savanah has good morning skys. ;-)

Perhaps it depends on the part of Florida. Gulf coast sunsets are
magnificent.

Yup!
Can't wait to get there.
Also, looking forward to a good meal at Trulock's.

Yep.

Daughter and s-i-l live in Jacksonville Beach and get good sunrise
photos. Living in the middle of the state (east to west), I have to
travel to get those good sunrise and sunset photos over water. Unless
I'm in the area for several days, the odds of getting a good one are
slim.

There were some good sunsets from Mallory Square in Key West, but I
was too distracted by the trained cats and people shots to point my
camera to the sky.

It IS a great place to do visual studies in people, LOL!!!
