This is the second shot I took in 90 miles beach, is all for the dramatic sky. I know lots of people might like it in colours, but honestly the colours version is not much different then this one.

-----------------
- Crop
- Convert to B&W
- apply clarify x 2
- Increase contrast
- Sharpen
- Add border

What a magnificent skyscape.I'm sure the colour version was good,but B&W images always look more dramatic,which makes this shot even more impressive.

NZ does seem to get some weird cloud patterns, especially over the coast. SUPERB Sweety! Great composition, and in B&W it looks great. I love your POV, it makes it look so dramatic. Well done my friend,
Janice

Hi Puffy,

This is a wonderful landscape photograph, good composition and awesome in B&W. What really makes this image, for me at least, is the beautiful display of "Cirrus" cloud (high level cloud usually above 18,000 ft consisting of ice crystals) you have so very well photographed. 11/10

Hi Sweety

Wonderful tonal range & pov. I like the emphasis on the sky in the composition. Well done!

Hi Sweety,
This time I put this one in my favorite. This landscape and the sky are just fan-tas-tic.

I noticed that beautiful photo yesterday, and I waited until I can give smilies again. Extremely dramatic shot. Everything adds to it - skies above, a row of clouds at the horizon, two lonely silhouettes. Very well done!

Very well done I like black and white in a good photo such as this. If the photo looks good in Black and White the I believe it is framed and right and the light is right.
well done.

Wow!!!! another amazing B&W image. Lovely seascape with a incredible sky dominating the shot. Moody and well composed.

Hi Sweety, another great mood in BW! I really appreciate the light control. The sky texture is perfectly great! So sharp that i stll can see people at the beach. Majestic scene.

Wauwww..what a sky part, the way you captured this gives it a lot of depht and the B/W sure fits the picture Sweety !!

The one thing I adore is the effect of skies from the Clarify treatment. Very well done.

You got a lovely sequence of shots in B&W, but this one is my favorite... because of the enigmatic sky surely...
