I'm really surprised this didn't finish higher. Very lovely shot with a great B/W tonal range. Perfect for the mood of the approaching storm. The hands on the hips is classic. :P Quite easy to imagine being there...very nicely done!
I liked how you framed this one, with the people in the lower right third. The horizon is just below the midline of the frame, giving more emphasis to the sky and heavy clouds. I think this should have scored at least a half point higher.
Nice image....I can see this blown up and put in a summer cottage some where. I like the composition with the people in the lower right corner looking out into the water. Good contrast with dramatic clouds over head.
That is pretty ominous looking. I hope everyone listened. Nice BW conversion, great texture in the clouds so I can tell it was well exposed. Great job! 8
