Pond in the Berkshires in autumn

[DanK]

Sitting at my computer listening to plumbers ripping out a wall to get at a leak, I am distracting myself from the rapidly mounting bill and amount of destruction by going through old images.

This was a grab shot of sorts last autumn at Berry Pond, the highest body of water in Massachusetts. Comments welcome.

This was the first time I've used the new Lightroom AI-based sky selection. It was very slow on my little laptop--I didn't time it, but probably a couple of minutes--but it worked remarkably well. I used it to increase contrast and saturation in the sky. At first glance, I don't see a visible border.

Clouds seem a bit over exposed and lacking detail. How does it look in the original?

Thanks. Good catch. They aren't blown out, but as a result of the contrast adjustment, they are VERY close in places. I'll tone it down.
