Old Barn in Rush Valley, UT

The combination of the puffy clouds in this late April shot of an old barn in Rush Valley, Utah - Tooele County works well as a monochrome rendering. The image is pre-filtered to emphasize the red channel which darkens the blue sky and therefore increases the contrast between the clouds and the sky.

This is a typical spring sky in Utah which often occurs after storms. Summer skies tend to be featureless Moreover, the trees have not yet leaved so that the tree branches show stark against the bright clouds.
