What a beautiful moody shot. I love those clouds. You captured a lot of detail in them. The house and grass add nice contrast.

I like the dark side of this picture with the cloud that are coming, the sharpness is excellent and I like the contrasting white of the house that is capturing our eyes. well done.

Your patience waiting for the perfect light was well-rewarded here, Jim. The scene has a surreal look to it. Love the colors and the sunlight on the shed and grass in the foreground. Well done!

Bonjour Jim,
Votre photo est le rêve de tout photographe!
Quels contrastes bien exploités: la blancheur de la maison alliée à son assise en pente évoquent la fragilité, le calme et la vulnérabilité; alors que la noirceur et le mouvement des nuages présagent la menace, la tempête et la violence. Il y a dans cette composition une puissance dramatique qui ferait le bonheur de beaucoup de cinéastes. Vivement votre prochain envoi!

Hello John, very good photo, composition and light for the mood here. Very Maritimes like :)

I like the golden colour on the grass in the fg and the shed pops out with the white but is not washed away.

And magnificent clouds!!! Almost 3d like.

Very well done and well seen, John!

Take care, Yan

Hi Jim,
It's a very impressive scenery photo. The clouds are so beautiful. The little white house is nicely contrasted with the background. Only thing I'd like to point out is that your camera was a bit tilted.

Terrific work Jim, love the reeds in the foreground, they are beautifully lit. and the clouds they are to die for. Great composition too. A cracker.

Gorgeous colours and scenery, Jim! I love the clouds and the little white house. Nova did a nice cropping workshop. I tried a workshop to correct for the tilt. I hope you like it!
Kind regards,

I love the individual dark clouds Jim, very well done. What are the little houses/sheds in the background?

Excellent photograph, Jim. The vegetation on the foreground, the white house on the middle and the lowering sky - together they form a very effective image. I can almost feel the cool wind ushering in the rain.

Love the contrast with the brightly lit house against the stormy sky. Straight to my favorites!

I really like the way the white house stands out from the background. My only suggestions would be a slight tilt to make the house level, and I might clone out the wires going to the house.

Hi Jim, well done! The lighting is interesting, looks like one of those great after-the-rain weird lighting situations. I love the clouds and the grass! My only question: is it just me, or is the horizon a bit slanted?

Thanks for sharing!

Hi Jim,

Great dramatic sky and the house really works well. It seems a bit wonky or is that just me?

Cheers

Buena foro Jim, excelente en colores...
Quizá el workshop que te han hecho tb lo habria propuesto yo, ya que la encuentro un poco doblada, pero eso no la hace menos buena.
Me gusta!

Saludos.

Hi Jim...

Nice capture with excellent exposure, detail and sharpness. However, the image suffers from the horizon being off-level, and could use some post-processing to reveal its true dramatic potential. I've done a WS in black and white to give an example of what I mean. Hope you like it.

hello jim. great picture. the wind seems to be blowing very hard with the clouds racing along and even the land and building seem to have a tilt to them from the wind! best, phil
