COMPOSITION-CONTENT I loved the simple composition and content of this, the picture has instant impact. There is no clear focal point of the picture, but the eyes are drawn to the horizon and its lovely that there are no man made objects in the whole picture. I think cropping off the bottom couple of cms might hav been good, to get rid of the darker clouds at the bottom and would bring the more interesting clouds closer to the viewer. Colour is beautiful, the simplicity of the colours and softness of them are beautiful.
BACKGROUND DOF is great here, and the horizon is nicely in focus. Basically the background is the photo here and the background is gorgeous!
DIGITAL PROCESSING-TECHNICAL No problems here, could have been possible to add a bit more contrast to bring out the blues of the sky a little more, would have also have to decrease the light though to stop the whites from being blown out. However, I think it is great as it is!
CAMERA WORK-TECHNICAL The whites in the picture are lovely and clean, they probably couldnt take much more contrast as they would get blown out.
MY OPINION I really liked this picture, it has the WOW factor! Lovely crisp, clean colours and the simplicity of it is great. Think it would have benefitted from having the bottom darker clouds cropped, to lead the eye more smoothly into the distance. It doesnt relate strongly to the photojournalism theme and so probably lost a few points because of that and not because of the picture itself, I think people were expecting shots with more human impact in them! However, its a great picture and Good Luck with the Blue challenge! Hope that this helps! |

Very interesting. Convincingly frigid. The only thing I find distracting is the shadow up front. I'd love to have seen a person bundled up in the distance. Good job. Grayce |

Can't tell if this is taken from the window of an airplane above the clouds or somewhere in Alaska, or someplace like that. It's a beautiful photo, with really great depth of field. I'd hve to read the article to find out which location is right. Good job, beautiful pic. Well done. PTL8 |

Not sure what the "story" is in this pic, but it's definitely a high quality pic, and that's what I'm voting this week, basically. 8 nards656 |

Very nice image. I wish the blues were a little more saturated. |

Ground seems a bit overexposed. Would have been nicer with stonger blue in sky too. But a nice picture. |

a super cool photo and sure to score high.. I may raise my score before weeks end... but for now I am just not sure how well it meets the "impact of the moment" stated in the challenge..... I need the way cool effect to wear off before I can deside.. lol (7) ~anachronite |

interesting statement. but if there is no one there to enjoy the lack of pollution, does it matter that there is none? 7 |

Really good photo. The lower left is a little distracting, but cropping it really would not have been appropriate. Very nice. |

I'm sure there's still quite a lot of pollution up there in the clouds |
