p.1 #1 · Approaching Storm


Hi

Storm season is starting in Australia.

This looked impressive for awhile - but it passed to the east, so I missed most of it.

I was happy to catch the lightning though. I then tried a 5 photo pano, but the sun had gone by then - better luck next time

Thanks for looking and any comments

Cheers

Alan

Really Like # 3. Different take on the usual "sunset" silhouettes. It seems the little patch of blue sky is exposed perfectly. I might suggest cloning the little white specks in the black. Also, nice lighting catch in #2.

My favorite is #1 with the top half or so cropped to a horizontal format. It creates a great scene.

Nice series Alan, love the light in #1...yes that lightning strike is very elusive to catch, but exciting when yu get it! I'm now sitting with the Weather Radar tracking website permaently on my screen keeping an eye out for the next chance!

I usually like to give some input on which is my favorite, and why, but after ~5 minutes of going back and forth I give up - I really like them all! All 3 shots have a 'magical' center of interest, with some wonderful light and/or color! The first has that wonderful green expanse with a winding track, the 2nd has a more muted version, with the wonderful lightning stroke off to the side, and the 3rd has that beautiful patch of bold blue. I also like the framing as the first shot really works in the vertical where the other 2 seem to be perfectly suited to a landscape orientation. I guess if you force me, I'd vote #1 as a slight favorite, with a tie between 2 and 3 for my second choice. Nice stuff!

I like them all two, 1 and 3 a touch more. The sky in 3 is superb. Lovely light in 1 and I like the framing.
