 I told them how I felt.
They told me it wasn't true.
There's not much that I'm sure of,
but I sure know I ain't you.
You might reverse that too.

I dance over the fields.
You walk the forest trail.
You'll know just where to put your feet
but the air you breathe is stale.
There's a hitch to your inhale.

But what good is it to furrow brows?
What good is it to cry?
God didn't give you a gentler heart
so I shake my fist at the sky.
I shake my fist at the sky.
Lordy I'm sick of the canned reply.

A totally scary shot! The weird green that the sky turns right before the wind explodes is one of the eeriest things I have ever experienced. Terrific capture!

This one should have been in the Trees competition.
Great shot and moody colours.

All I can say this is a superb image! Very moody, tons of detail and a great landscape. Not sure how it fits into the challenge, but beyond that exceptional image!

Superb image. I always remember tornado skies as being the oddest shade of green. And deathly calm.

Beautiful image! Of course it's only DNMC to people who "don't understand". Hate is a personal feeling. It's not a universal feeling for all. I feel your hate sista!! LOL!

Very nice shot. I don't see the connection to hate other than the title but you sure have a way with creating interesting shots. This has that dark omminous feel to it which as you know, I love those kind of images. It even has a little of an evil feel to it. Good job.

This is such a nice photo and the processing works OK for me. That tree is an excellent subject, somewhat traumatized. As said, hard to vote it up purely based on the subject hate.

Although this didn't necessarily fit into "hate" easily, I think it is an exceptional photo. In fact, it is going into my favorites. The lighting is just superb.

nothing about this except the title conveys the idea of "hate."

Very dramatic, interesting shot! I personally would have cropped a tiny bit more off the top, but not too much more. The use of thirds here is very nice, and really adds to the composition.
