 This is a pano composite of two images taken last year at Lettuce Lake Park in Tampa, FL and I can't even remember what I did to it in Photoshop. The result is pretty creepy though. I hope it gives a sense of forboding... I'm not a negative person... really, I'm not!

I love your use of grain in this shot. Dark tones are marvelously inviting!

The tones here are great. I really do get a sense of foreboding when I look at this. Excellent DoF.

Yes, very much forboding. An interesting shot, though I find it a little too dark for my taste. I feel like it all kinds of "runs together" - everything seems a little indistinct. I love the clouds though. The composition is somewhat "off" for me - not really visually engaging, and my eyes are constantly drawn to the clouds, rendering the rest of the photo virtually invisible.

I love the mood of this image. Very contrasty. The darks lost a bit of detail. Well done. Can you tell me what is 'forboding' ??

I have to stretch to guess that the dark clouds represent a forboding future. Perhaps featuring the clouds more prominently would help. Otherwise it feels like I'm just out in a field on a cloudy day. More impending doom! :)
