Very cool perspective that is going on in this shot. The clouds are very well resolved and its super cool how it seems like they’re all oriented towards a particular focal point on the horizon.
I really like this! It has a fun foreground that gives the image a nice, playful feel. Also the clouds make it feel like you are being sucked into the image. It’s awesome.
This is my favorite picture from clouds second. The visual flow of the clouds is amazing. The clouds have great contrast against the sky which can also be seen reflected on the surface of the pond. Very crisp and focused. Aesthetically pleasing.
This image has a nice perspective of the clouds in it. However, I feel like the foreground distracts away from the clouds a bit. The focus of this image is crisp and the contrast is good.
Wow what a beautiful image. Really enjoy the angle you captured the clues from. Nice bright colors. Clouds in in great detail and focus.
With the clouds pointing to axis of origin, I am very surprised by how the clouds manage to not only appeal to the eye, but give the viewer a chance to take everything in since no matter where the viewer looks, the image always has something in it. In terms of improving it, I would suggest having the bottom layer of the landscape and bikers cropped out to give it a better sense of isolation within the sky. With what this image does excel at, I would say its the timing. Clouds that manage to point in the same direction despite wind patterns are appealing because across the blue sky, a white sky pattern is stunning and is a great way to make people follow things to the center of where the clouds are pointing.
1. Great image! The compositional lines are very impressive.
2. The physics are well shown.
3. The photographic technique is excellent.
The cirrus clouds are well depicted in this image. I feel as if i can see the direction of the winds from this image. I think the bottom could have been cropped a bit to be a little less distracting.
Art: I really like the lines of the clouds kind of pulling you in farther into the piece.
Flow: The flow is quickly understandable and easily recognized.
Photographic technique: The focus of the clouds is great, especially due to the soft edges that are inherent in these types of clouds.
Impressive composition; all the clouds look to be converging to the center of the image. The blue color gradient in the sky is also very nice.
Very pretty picture. The stretched out wispiness of the clouds make it feel like the clouds are moving through the sky. The reflection of the water on bottom is really nice and adds a calming touch.
really cool to see the streaks of the clouds throughout the sky. the long lines make the sky look round and curved from the photos perspective.
Really nice capture of these cirrus clouds. I like how the clouds span over the entire sky, it seems like you can almost see the curvature of the earth when looking at these clouds.
Nice photo! It’s interesting how the clouds are orthogonal to the horizon. I like the race and the pond at the bottom, it gives a nice perspective to the sky. Interesting textures in the clouds.
I like the way your clouds are layered. The composition is really cool.
