Lovely. I like how you broke the 'rules' with a very small amount of ground included - it gives it a great expansive feel. I just think it might be a bit too much, i.e. maybe just a tad more ground would be good.

However, it's well done.

Val,  Wonderful, dramatic image.  Since this is a chapel or small church, one could say it was saved by the grace of god, eh?  Excellent composition.  Was this a tornado-like event or is it just the wide angle that adds drama to the sky? This is definitely better in B&W than color.

wow, i like that cloud there.

well done

This image is excellent in Black&White.

It reminds me of my years past taking landscape photographs with a large format film camera on a heavy duty tripod.

Keep up the excellent work.

Dramatic & almost Spiritual capture.!

The fact that you presented this to us in B&W is impressive. The dramatic cloud formation above the tree and church made me concerntrate more to the bottom of the middle area of clouds-It looks as if water is being poured from the cloud to the tree as if it's being blessed.

Congratualtions on this find and lovely capture. I personally love it!
