From my terrace

I really like how the rays of sunlight serve almost as a misplaced shadow for the palm tree leaves.

Another one shot from my terrace. Critiques please

brilliant use of lighting

What a great capture. Ilove the way the palm is the center off-center. Nice composition. Regard, Wolf.

The fanning lines of the sun's rays are beautifully captured as well as highlights of clouds. Positioning the clouds / axis of radiating lines is excellent (bottom left toward top and right). The Palm is a nice contrast; however, maybe it's just, but I'd like it better if there were some of the tree's trunk. I am not one who thinks you have to see all of a subject; but this one seem a bit out of perspective. Nonetheless, a gorgeous sky capture.
