I really like the framing of this photo. It captured some interesting foreground additions that added positively in my opinion. The cloud phenomenon is really interesting and well resolved. I may have lowered the exposure a little.
The range of yellows captured is really awesome. I like the cloud formations, they are visually appealing. Great job on capturing the details.
Great portrait picture allows many clouds to be captured. The flow can be clearly seen and the image is very aestheically pleasing.
The posted image quality appears a little on the low side, consider compressing the image less in the future. I really like the feel the hues in the clouds give to this image. However, I am unsure how I feel about leaving in all of the trees and such in the foreground. On the one hand the shadow effect adds a nice touch, but on the other there seems to be a bit too much going on in the shadows.
Great texture. Lots of small detailed clouds. Good contrast. Really enjoy the transfer of colors.
1. Fantastic image of clouds- great texture and colors.
2. The physics are well shown.
3. The photographic technique is good.
Almost every photo involving clouds with the sun behind them is guaranteed to be frame-worthy, and this photo is no exception. The excellent use of the light rays spreading across the cloud landscape toward the right part of the northern sky is my favorite part to this image. With that said, I am curious to see what the original image looked like unless of course this is the original image in which case this is quite the capture to be honest. Excellent work.
Beautiful colors, love the golden yellow gradient to the blue sky with cloud wisps. Border on the bottom is nice, lightpost somewhat distracting though. Great focus!
Art: I really like the color contrast of the bright yellow in the clouds and the dark background.
Flow: The flow is quickly understandable and easily recognized.
Photographic technique: The focus of the clouds is well done and the colors captured are very interesting.
The transition of cloud density from front to back really helps to showcase the deep perspective you captured in the image. That single power pole is bugging me :)
I like the nice range of tones in this image. The clouds take up the full image and are clearly the focus of the image. Overall the image is well resolved and the intent of the image is clear.
Awesome range of tones. Good contrast
Great popcorn feel, kinda reminds me of those old popcorn-finish ceilings in houses. I like the natural progression in tone from the bottom yellow to the deep blues you got in the top of the photo.
Nice photo! Interesting textures in the clouds, I like the coloring and contrast here.
Great capture of these cloud structures. I really like these early morning photos, they give a different perspective of these clouds. Colors are very vibrant and warm.
