The cow is clearly hovering over the fence, probably in mid-jump over the moon.

OK, here are some more, all on one day recently. The fourth is a tiny crop from top edge of the third, to show you what that dust speck is.

Very nice, Mike. I particularly like the fourth: would you mind sharing the toning recipe?

I find the 2nd image very powerful, Mike, especially trying to imagine it at full-size.
The 4th image struck me as well, but I feel it would have been more powerful if you would have composed the shot a couple of notches lower. In other words, 10% less empty sky above clouds and 10% more city & earth.
That's my $0.02.

Thanks, folks!
Jack: I agree with your assessment of the fourth one - the clouds there were 'unplanned' as I was just walking by and had a camera with me. Shooting handheld I didn't get as much of the buildings as I could have.
Jeremy, the images were toned in Lightroom using:
Highlights
Hue 41
Saturation 23
Balance
+100
Shadows
Hue 0
Saturation 0
Dale, I like the curl of the highlights in that cloud, but if it was me I'd try lowering the black point and/or increasing the contrast a bit to bring out more tonal separation.
Mike.

Thanks, Mike. I'll have to look out for a suitable image on which to try it!

The first one's nice, but I love the clouds in the second. We have a trees thread and a rocks thread. Maybe we should start a clouds thread?
Mike.
Two out of three ain't bad I guess! No shortage of clouds or trees around these parts but this was taken in the UK, I just love the symmetry between the two major elements here. |

Thanks, Mike. I am reposting taking advantage of your suggestion. A startling improvement. I am also adding a color image for C&C.
Thanks,
Dale

Thanks. The first one is the second one improved by Mike's critique.

Small boat heading out at dawn Puts things into perspective, no? One of the reasons I love living beside the ocean. Mike. |
