I like the abstract feeling here.
The focus of this image is on point. There are no distractions and the black and white seemed to be a good choice!
awesome image. I think it was a great Idea to use black and white as your effect and I also like how you took a pole out of the image as it would have been an eye sore to the image.
I like the texture captured in this image.
I like this picture. It looks like it could be a painting. The contrast of the dark colors in the gap of the clouds and the bright white right next to it is cool.
I really like that you decided to go with black and white, it helps the image bring out more emotions
The color contrast looks great! Great choice on the color.
This photo is definitely interesting and shows the different textures of the clouds. Goodjob with the black and white contrast because we’re able to see the individual layers
I’m not sure I really like the black and white in this image, mostly because the highlights are completely washed out. It does help to show the texture in the upper right corner, though.
I like the black and and white choice for the image. You can see the density of the clouds much easier this way. I like how the darker clouds are oriented more towards the edges, almost creating a natural frame.
I like the linearity of this photo. The upper right grabs my attention most.
good cloud pick. the black and white choice adds texture.
Such texture, such drama! I think black and white was a god choice for this, there’s a lot of juicy texture to absorb with this. Nice photo!
I like how centered the image is. Is there a reason there is high exposure in the center? Was the sun behind that area?
This image has a lot of pop to it! Defintely an interesting way to visualize the flow across the sky and the way these clouds look is very interesting.
I like the contrast that you were able to capture within this image. The gray-scale version of this image brings a very nice depth into the picture and allows us to really see the different altitudes of each cloud. Interesting to see the difference between the clouds and the sky in this image.
