Island in the sky

While running away from a menacing storm,

I marooned on island in the sky.

Enchanted by primal colors,

I stood breathless watching cloud tending white-rimmed, million-year

old scar.

 

Some love colors. enjoy life!

Interesting with the text. Better without it.

 

Good fantasy landscape, like the super-saturation on this particular image.

Did't realize some pay attention to what I put in intro :) I'll have a less colorful intro next time.

I love the poetry Mahmet but think mother nature should have been left alone,regards

Nature was not damaged during this shot!

 

Like many nature-lovers, I'm very conscious of consequences of my photographic activities.

 

Curious, but in this case. I think the color version does much more justice to the fantasy then the BW. Strange, but very well processed for a fantasy. Regards.

Fantasy is a very strong word for this landscape. As a landscape this is real. Geology, river, clouds, storm are all real. Nothing foreign added or subtracted,

 

It has been enhanced to highlight three aspect of the scene, but I'd hardly call the result a fantasy. Since when the using curves, levels, and saturation have become tools of fantasy?

 

 

 

I think your picture is a very good one, and again I prefer the color version. Having said that I am not going to engage in a discussion about reality, and fantasy, and the artistic interpretation of reality. Fantasy for me has not a negative value. But just to cut a long story short let me replace "fantasy" for "your interpretation and reproduction of a magical moment of natural light and beautiful natural landscape". Regards.

Drama in the sky! Nice image!
