Storm and Tree

A shot from sunrise on Saturday, taken just before a storm hit.

 

My filters were covered in a mix of spray and raindrops, no matter how

often I cleaned them and this has resulted in the shot having an

(unintentional) slightly smudged/blurred look to it I quite like.

 

Interested in peoples views on if it works as is... or if I'm just

trying to salvage something best deleted!

You would delete that? Maybe the smudges would show on a print, but here on my screen, it looks really good. Great exposure, and lovely lines, and a wonderful sky.

I would not delete this. Very nice composition, great colours and effect. Congrats.

A fine photo,very well composed.

Perfect shot

Yes, this is perfect.

Beautiful capture! and the exposure time is perfect.Congrats

Nice movement capture in the water Benjamin provides some strong lines leading you to the tee and intro the water. The darkened clouds and surf add to the sense of drama in this shot. Looks sharp enough at this size, very nice photo.

Well done. Good choice of exposure time and good light. I would consider different crop as large part of the right side does not really add too much to the image.

Good!

Very nice image , Beautiful composition and colors , Great work ..................... Best regards.

 

Fantastic, great colors and details.

 

Gorgeous. Love the composition, the lines and overall feel I get from this. :)

Excellent work. Nice composition, DOF and movement. That's a keeper if i have ever seen one... Regards - michel

Breath taking! The light, the composition, the lines, the foreground. A masterpiece.
