Break in the Clouds

there’s more to it than just “a break in the clouds”. I think you reveal your divine chops with this bold religious photograph David. I see the picture as bringing to the fore the heavenly idea, or maybe it’s just my looking at the shot right after downing the one extra Glenfiddich that I know pushes reasonably collected individuals into the realm of perceptual wackiness.

I'm with Carlos, there's something metaphysical or unknown represented here.  Out of the darkness into the light.  A thoughtful and superior image that's perfectly presented... Mike

Great comments Carlos and Mike!

Yes, I thought about a spiritual title of some sort - but then perhaps the soul searching is quite evident without words.

 

(Carlos - I'll have to view this photo again after a glass of wine or two - and see if it looks better)

 

 

Best to you both Gentleman,

David

This is a truly excellent picture that is primarily dependent on the compositional eye of the photographer and his ability to discern the right moment for the shot. Your tones are exceptional, from bright, glaring sunlight to the deepest shadows, beautifully rendered. It deserves a place in my favorites.

In walk time a moment like this show in front of us and for a photographer for sure a quick action to caught the scene.Like an open window in our way,is so good how eyes are lead from shadow(but a so nice foreground with enough details,all those roots) to light.Left right trees like keepers of the path.

Jack & Radu - Many thanks, and sorry for the delayed response, (I've been away for a few days).

 

Best, David

I agree with all of the comments. Kudos.

Thoughts welcome -

Thanks, David

Together w/ your other shot of the maples, I'd say you have a strong way w/ landscape mono (which I like alot). This is beautifully done w/ sorta symetry, keeping shadow detail & hanging on to the brighter spots w/ the intense range.

Thanks Tony and Doug - pleased you thought enough of this shot to comment.

So beautiful!

Well done, David!

Thanks very much Marie & Mario -
