I know that, Marshall. The color filters, as I learned in J-school, are used to control the relative values of the original colors in black and white photography. And, it was the "pollution" of your yellow filter that I was taking exception to. You said it's "usually undesirable," and I thought it was just that, at least in that image.

One more thing.  The reason it's taught not to use yellow filters for color photography is NOT because they don't darken skies and enhance clouds.
Rather, it's because the color of the filter becomes part of, or pollutes a color photograph, which is usually undesirable.  Black and white photos always
appear as b&w regardless of what color filter is used.

Marshall,

I'm aware that yellow (or red) filters help bring out the clouds, but as I said, I learned in J-school photo class that they were to be used with b&w film, not color.
