stormy XV

thanks for viewing, comments are welcome!

You don't see a leading line going away from the seeming center of interest of a photo and towards the outside of a frame, but I think it works great here as it brings your attention quite naturally to the ominous effect the storm has on the tree and then the storm itself. I especially like the contrast between the dark tree on the right and the white clouds on the left. The only real critique I have would be to show a little bit more towards the left of the frame, as I keep wanting to look to the left of the small cloud and see the rest of it. Also, I probably would have taken it from a little higher up, as I think the reeds going above the horizon in the middle of the photo takes away from the interaction between the white cloud and the dark trees. Otherwise, great photo! Alex.

I love your meaning to understand the scene,into the rules or without,the contrast and the good b&w are between others things makes the final result,An image like or not like,it's simple,the sense of the aesthetic is not always connect with the rules.Stunning job....in my IMHO of course!.Best regards

Beautiful image. Very well constructed a beautiful black and white rendition. Cheers

Interesting angle in an image full of contrasts: The textures of the ground vs the softness of the sky, the dark tree vs the white cloud. Well done.

perfect!
