About the Image(s)

This photo was taken in Montana where my son-in-law, retired as a Smoke Jumper! At the time I had a Canon Rebel. It was a bland sky so I replaced it!. I was thrilled to be
there at his practice!
The Smoke Jumpers do a great service for our country!

I came very close to being a skydiver in my youth, but never found the courage. Will forever wish I had!

Great shot, and nice choice for sky.   Posted: 05/13/2022 21:49:18

I like the sky you chose. I have yet to try sky replacement on any of my pictures, but this past weekend I took several pictures of just skies with the intention to experiment with them.   Posted: 05/18/2022 16:03:58
