What to do with a rather boring photo - make it into a sphere using an easy Photoshop process?  Viola. Although the sky was fairly interesting before the conversion, I think it makes for a much nicer photo

High Dynamic Range (HDR) images

 I had a lot of fun experimenting today with a new HDR program.  I love the way the program gives a "surreal" look to photographs by using a larger dynamic range between lightest and darketes areas of a photo.  Generally you need to take three photos to achieve this affect, HOWEVER with software it is easy to accomplish with one photograph.
