Very cool stormy effect created in this photo. Seems like this was done in post processing. cool color range and exposure choices.
The details here are unreal. I feel like I’m in the middle of a gnarly storm. This image is visually striking and really incites emotion.
This image is so surreal and graphic that I swear it could be used as the poster of a storm disaster movie from Hollywood. I love this image. The post-production effects are absolutely sublime. I appreciate the use of altering the shadows and their lighting to give the clouds a more-menacing storm-like appearance. The size of the image is quite impressive, and I have to wonder if you managed to catch these clouds by accident or planned on a day when there would be heavy cloud coverage to capture the perfect horizontal cloud layer. I don’t know if altering this image even more would take away from it. This is definitely one of the best images from this group gallery, and I love the fact that the clouds flow and swirl into one another. I like to wonder if flipping the image so that it is mirrored would be more appealing to the eye. The reason I say this is that the cloud move from right to left, but a lot of people read and see imagery from left to right. But this is still a phenomenal image.
I really like the gloomy feeling of this image. You did an amazing job with photoshop changing the picture completely. The contrast is good.
Art: I really like the brightness contrast in this piece, the post processing used makes this look like it’s an afternoon shot which I really like.
Flow: The flow is quickly understandable and easily recognized.
Photographic technique: The focus of the clouds is well done.
Your photoshop choices were bold but they paid off! Love how you can see the detail in the cloud texture. The dark colors make it seem like a different time of day and give the picture a dramatic and dark feel. Love this picture!
This image has a cold feeling that fits well. I enjoy how easily you can see the cool cloud formation in the center of the image.
1. Very cool image.
2. The physics are well shown.
3. The post-processing is really nice and brings out the cloud texture.
interesting photo! The detail of the cloud is a little blurry, unfortunately. Still, nice texture of the cloud, the coloring on the left and the gray scale on the right are a nice effect.
The image has a very ominous, powerful perspective with the clouds being showcased. The editing choices helped to illustrate this well.
Cool image! good job on the editing ! Dramatic with good contrast
Awesome capture of these interesting cloud structures. Nice job with all the photoshop work, the final image really brings out the dynamics of the clouds.
This is a really awesome cloud formation. It almost looks like a wave forming in the ocean. It is really cool to see the difference in the gesture between the clouds in the sky. Looks like a storm is brewing in this photo.
Really awesome job editing the photo. After seeing the original it is quite impressive the effects that you managed to get out of the photo. Really like the grays and blacks in the photo. Even the white at the tail of the formation. The photo is very dramatic.
Very interesting how different the edited version is from the original. Cool cloud formation. The darker colors make it look very ominous.
It reminds me of some sort of terrible storm that you see out over Nebraska or Kansas. The post processing makes it a different image with a different story and I like what you’ve done in darkening the image.
Great post processing, the use of layers and colors really help highlight the cloud formations. Interesting cloud formation as well.
Excellent job with the post processing it really makes this image. This image is striking and beautiful. The dark transition to light is quite appealing.
