Hi Lucky, how are you friend?
This is quite a nice shot. Stormy sky and the use of desaturation makes it very dramatic one. I also like the presence of the bathers in the shot. They do add to it. Good exposure, contrast and tone transitions. Nice work.

Amazing pic, liked the proportion of the Sky vs Sea. Dramatic clouds and nice warm colors. TFS!

Lucky.

Good work.
I like the sky a lot like this. Did you do any PP on this one ?
I like the compo as weel, people coming out of the water.

I wonder if you wouldn't have gotten an even better result in sharpness and clarity if you would have used a higher f stop number.

At f. 2.8 the scope to cover is too big in my opinion.
But hey ! it is still a great photo !

TFS

A very atmospheric, dramatic photo, the people provide interest in contrast to clouds, water and rain. Well captured.
