Been fortunate enough the last couple of months to have captured some dramatic skys up this way "Maine"

Here are a couple

Very nice. The cloud in the first image is really strange, but mostly, I think, because it is excellently highlighted by the light behind. I think #2 is my favorite, wonderful colors.

Louis, it sure was strange! You should have seen the storm it brought it. Lets put it this way on the sailboat was not the place to be

Thanks for your comment.

Hi Zippy,

Really like the sailboat shot. Such a moody shot with all the greys.

Excellent piece of photography here....

Love the 1st! The angle of the wicked cloud mirroring the masts fading perspective is really excellent!

They are all nice Dave....but that first one is really cool, especially with that ominous cloud moving in. Nice work.

Nice shots with a wicked cloud in the first, but that second barn shot is excellent! Beautiful Fall colors and a nice composition.

Ah, those storms just passed close to us. You got the brunt. Very, very cool sky in the first shot and I really like the second. Nice series!

Hey Dave,

I really like #2. That is cool. Your #3 shot does have too much pop. Notice how you started to blow out the clouds in the sky? You can do something similar, but use a layer mask so that the sky doesn't get effected, and maybe do it a little less.

I actually like #4 better then #1. I mean, #1 is nice, and cool in it's own way, but I wish the boats were lit up a bit more in that one.
