At least I got a pretty good picture of a cow in the dark

Yeah they are somewhat soft, but how exciting to record it anyway - lots more
detail than your self-debricating comment would
have lead me to believe... and you got that color nicely.
The composition on the cow is very nice, but on my monitor the sky is bogus... like you fiddle with it too much in photoshop -
or something -- I've seen that when I've done something correctional to the
sky too
Ann, I had done a little fiddling with the levels on one of my pictures in that
set to bring the clouds out a bit more, so I checked my lightroom command
history on that shot:
Import and publish, I didn't even correct the exposure, much less the color.
That's the color of the sodium lights reflecting off the clouds.
Do you prefer the version where I set the white balance to the clouds?

Glad to see the moon shots
Thanks
At first I thought you were talking about your moon shot... then I see
you are talking about the cow it isn't the COLOR of the sky ...
but the effect I saw is corrected with the blue sky. I jsut don't know
what the techy term is for the phenomenon that I've only seen
when I have overphotoshopped something trying to fix it. something, I
imagine, could occur in camera as well. So the fiddling
to bring the clouds out more is probably the culpert.
I'm buried under Christmas at the moment... at some point I can do a
before and aftert hign to show you what I mean, if someone
else hasn't noted the samething and given it is proper name :-)
The _color_ behind the silhouette was likeable..
