Bingo...i like it so much it's really fantastic i like the colors and the lighting how u capture it ,and to me it looks like cool and hot ,good and bad playing with colors /./././i hope one day be lucky to capture like this image
What a stunning shot when I first look at it. The colors, the tiny bit of lightening you caught, the light to dark, nice constrast. I feel this overall composition is pretty good for the newspaper shot. But something just niggles at me about this shot and I can't quite put my finger on it, let me look a bit longer here.......Okay, I think I see what it is, it's the balance between the sky and the ground. It's very top heavy. I took my magic envelopes and put them on the screen and when I crop out the ground completely it makes a completely different, more balanced picture to me. Even is you crop about half the ground, leaving more a dark line across the bottom rather than the lines leading in, which usually would work very well but in this case, to me they are competing with the top of the shot and the lightening. Also the colors seem just a tad pale, maybe a slight curves or hue/saturation adjustment to really make them pop out might make some difference.
But otherwise this is a great shot, nice capture! Hope my comments help and good luck in future challenges!
The lightning was so frequent that it was a lot easier than you might think. But luck also had something to do with it. It's probably the first time I've ever caught lighting with a 1/30 s shutter.
beatiful shot, but more of a backpage weather section image than a frontpage/cover photo, dontcha think? it would be a pretty slow newsday to find this on the front page...
