Love the lighting! When did you take this photo? Where was the sun?
Not a bad photo of a cloud but its something that anyone could get. Nothing super special but not bad either.
Thank you Brandon, very cool.
I like the glow coming from the bottom of the image and how it contrasts deeply with the dark cloud.
Great picture. The cloud looks nice. I like the color and the contrast. Great work
The most interesting thing in the image is the turbulence amoung the clouds. The editing working is nice. Sunshine is carefully kept in the image to echo the darkness of the clouds
I like the golden glow that spreads from the bottom of the photo that fades to more of a gray scale towards the top. I think the shadows could be lightened up a bit to get them a bit more detail and keep it from looking like it has been too heavily edited.
The shadow on the clouds is great. I like the layer differences. The color contrast looks awesome.
I really like the colors and the contrast in brightness that comes through! Great focus.
I like the contrast in your image between the bottom left corner and the darker upper right corner. The picture looks really good could be interesting to see this in Black and White
I love the contrast between the bottom left and top right corners. The light colored clouds on the right are very cool
Nice picture. I like the yellow captured in the photo, it contrasts nicely with the almost purple color of the sky.
The light coming up from the bottom is may favorite part. It frames things really nicely! The white-yellow-blue-black is great in this image
I really like the subdued colors in this. I’m curious to know what time of day this was taken, it almost looks like it was taken at night, but it looks really bright at the bottom too.
Very cool picture, almost looks like a painting that Bob Ross would create with the large contrasts of dark blue and white colors. Very beautiful in the way the golden white accents the dark edges of the clouds with wisps.
I love how the light quickly fades into darkness in this image, it gives it a creepy vibe and I like it.
Good color contrast here. You may have lost a little data by darkening the clouds so much but I quite like the artistic effect.
I really like the contrast between the cloud in the center and the bright sky in the lower right hand corner. The focus in this picture is very nice. Well done!
I think you did a good job at capturing the transition from light to dark as you go from bottom to top on the picture.
I really like the contrast of light from the bottom left to top right of your image.
I like the contrast you achieved with this image. There is a bit of graininess so you may want to consider messing around with the ISO more next time.
Great contrast! I like the dark blues and warm yellows. The two layers of clouds makes a nice frame
and highlights that front layer.
Great focus and composition. I like the light to dark and the diagonal element of the cloud.
I like the dreariness of the dark clouds. I like how the darkest part of the image is in the center of frame and the bright colors and more towards the edges.
I like the darkness with some lighting on the bottom. It shows the details well within the edges of the clouds and does not leave excess unnecessary info in the image.
Nice image! The contrast between the light and dark clouds is really nice, and the detail on the clouds is very clear.
This photo is great! It’s interesting to see the contrast in brightness as you move up the clouds.
