    This was taken on a boat tour on it's way back to Pier 39. In the original photo, the sky and water are boring blue and there wasn't much of a drama to it. Then I noticed the clouds and thought how it would look like in black and white. The first version wasn't so grand either. I needed to make the clouds standout. Played around with contrast and blacks in lightroom until I get this effect.
