Storm Over Millerton
#1

Was out shooting at a nearby lake this afternoon as a storm was dissipating.

7D MkII, ISO 100, F6.3, 16mm, 3 image HDR composite.

A really good shot! I took a copy and cropped about half the dark part of the sky... made a difference try it and see what you think? It's good enough for me anyway. A large print would look good in a public building relative to the area.

Thanks for the share

Kind regards

Terrific photo. I love the overall feel and clarity of the picture and especially the yellow green orange colours in the sky, the delightful light play on the water, and the fine detail of the orange flowers in the bottom left hand corner. Love it! Jeff

This is a good composition, Craig, the brightening distant sky giving the feeling of relief from the menacing heavy clouds above. The sky colours are great, and it would be nice to see more colour in the foreground - I would increase the saturation of the bottom half of the image and decrease the brightness there slightly. Just my opinions, of course.

Cheers.

The other thing I did while reworking it was remove the annoying piece of foliage on the upper left side.

What a stunning view.
I like the re-worked one especially that little gulley running down the centre.
Tell me, Is the 7D MK11 worth getting? I want to upgrade from my 650D

I was using a 50D prior and was very happy with it... I have hardly used it since I got the 7Dmkii. The improvement is astounding. Lightning fast focusing with a lens that was marginal on the 50D. ISO that is very usable at even 6400, I rarely shot above 400 with the 50D.
