"Deep Purple Clouds" in an interesting idea for the DPC Cinema challenge.

The image itself is very striking from the cool smooth coloring. I really love how rich and deep the purples are. The composition is very nice and I like the include of the ground so it doesn't look like a floating sky shot. Overall I think you have a very nice image.

The scoring in this challenge was very different from the norm. I personally looked at the photo for its quality first and second which was a big piece of my scoring was does this look like a movie and if so is it a convincing? Unfortunately I think that might have been what happened with your scoring on this piece. You have a wonderful shot but as for a movie its a little hard to believe.

I think you have a great eye and I hope you keep up your good work!

If I saw this poster, I doubt it would make me want to see the movie. Great color and tonal range, though.

Decent shot, but not sure what the movie would be about. Good colors.

Like, "smoke on the water, fire in the sky"? Nice sky. However I think it lacks an object to give it context.

Nice skyscape but... a movie about clouds?

While the title could be a movie title there would be some signifagance other than the clouds themselves most likely so the poster is not telling me much unless it is playing a thte IMAX. the photo is great. I love the colors and layers of clouds
