I'de never saw the sky like this. It's better to cut off the bottom side of this picture.

too much dodge & burn has taken the natural look out of this shot

Interesting sky...the dodging & burning seems a little heavy handed.

That's some sky! It almost looks out place to the scenery below it, though. I mean, I'm sure it was really there - it just has such a different feel to it than the rest of the pic. Still, nice depiction of country life!

So moody, your forground is so interesting I almost wish it was just that and the sky.There seems to be a bit of halo-ing around the horse on the right and whatever it is on the left (a cow?) I like your clouds as well, almost gives it an otherworld feel.

Wow, what amazing clouds. They looks so ominous.

clouds seem a little ... hmm off

Too much 'work' on the sky for my taste.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/13/2006 06:23:46 PM
The sky makes this great. There do look to be some dodged (lighter) areas that stand out more than they should, particularly around all the animals. It's a big difference between the ground around the empty field areas.
But really, the sky. Nice.

Love the effect of the sky, as it has the "WOW" factor for sure.....
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Effective, IMO sky looks added & over blured.....6
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/13/2006 12:38:27 AM
love the color of the sky... how did you do that?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/13/2006 12:34:07 AM
Love the landscape, but somehow the sky looks a bit too unreal to me. Nice contrasts though on the land.

Wow - that's some sky!!! 8
