Followed advice of @Harley_Goldman and brought down sky and cliff a bit.

Great sky to go with that old shack. I might experiment with bringing down the highlights a bit to make it a bit more forlorn and match the old shack?
Good perception. I expect I will need to dampen the cliff as well. We shall see.
Dick: Cool scene and I really like how you presented it. Top notch.>=))>
Dick, the mix of old house, tall cliffs and stormy sky makes a somber scene. It feels like there’s too much orange in the lower ground. It’s pretty amazing how recently some of these “old mines and mining towns” were finally abandoned.
I think you are right about the orange FG. When burning for vignette, saturation goes up. I did not readjust that.
I grew up in Salt lake City and remember well the Utah uranium boom which began in the 1950s because my father’s version of purchasing lottery tickets was buying uranium “penny stocks” and he and my mother would argue about it.
Interesting … Sounds like a Wallace Stegner family story.
