Description

In amongst all of our cloud and rain, I managed to find a couple of hours of relatively clear sky..... or so I thought.  There seemed to have been a lot of humidity in the atmosphere (assumption on my part) which has caused a softness in the image that I found hard to remove in post.  Or maybe it's just my sub-optimal pixel scale at this focal length! 

As usual, any tips or hints would be greatly appreciated!
