Solitaire

Many thanks for your comments.

Lovely pic.. But I dont like the cyan/ Bluish bit in the sky.. makes it look a bit unatural

fantastic!

great colours, great composition! very pro.

Beautiful image. One just can't imagine what how many colours & tones a sky can have, so this works fine for me.

Cherlyn, the sky is so strong and so wonderful in Africa......

Gianluca. Clouds can create infinite patterns and variations. Here they rise and lower at the same time, the lower ones almost crushing the solitary tree. The foreground looks a bit sacrificed and I understand your choice to show the whole upper expansion. But the foreground is beautiful, too, and deserves all attention for the loneliness and the golden glittering of the water. You might consider cropping a fe inches on top, just where the white bluish cloud forms a sort of double arrow. Just to try. Anyway, beautiful landscape and colors.

Spettacolare, favlosa. Colori, cielo, profonditࠤa meraviglia. Bella Bella

Molto bella. Un classico esempio di come le regole sono fatte proprio per essere violate. Bravo. Solo un neo: intorno a quell'albero (sui bordi) e dietro (tra le frasche) c'蠡ncora un pochetto di lavoro in sospeso! ;-)

Michele, hai ragione, ma proprio non sono riuscito a toglierli quei maledetti pallini bianchi !!

very nice shoot

Good picture Gianluca, the composition aimed to the clouded sky and the pattern of the clouds themselves (that seem the main subject) leave the Solitaire tree as a secondary character. Just a little doubt on the choiche of the blue on the top of the picture. Did you try a pure duochrome version?

 

Best regards Fabio

wow. Gianluca, ma chesto e una bellezza da amirare!

Bravo.. mi piace tantoooo!

Biliana

vabbeh.... quando il 'gruppo' sarࠡ regime ti daro' qualche dritta...

This is magnificent...I love the tonal range in this photo. I would try to get rid of the purple tint on the photograph....Just my 2c.

Super dear Basso...

Me quedo admirado con tanta belleza plasmada en esta imagen.Felicidades.

saludos

Great light and tone. Luminescent! Also, the dynamic balances of sky and earth, cool and warm tones, and exposure values make this an extraordinary image.

Spettacolare. Excellent tones and light.

Very nice composition with the clouds!

Complimenti. Bella luce e composizione.

A wonderful picture which so captures the essence of big sky and wid open space we have in Africa, and the whole tone begs the notion, "Out of Africa"

firmly grounded with a striking thorn tree siloueted, and the foreground watering hole, with a hint of rain to break the lingering afternoon heat.. Well done.. I love this and would have it on my wall anyday!

Thank you Keith !!

Very good

 

Happy years
