Simply stunning zen-like image. I love the three simple stages/states combining to achieve the full photograph. My favourite in the challenge and my choice for the Blue. 10.
OK, I'm going through the Free Study submissions, purposefully finding those images I think are shot with a less conventional eye - this is one of those images! Thanks for offering something that isn't just DPC friendly eye-candy (though of course there's nothing wrong with eye-candy). I'll be picking one of these images for the Mu (most underrated) award:
Positives: This interesting for a number of reasons, not least your aspect ratio. It does work though, it conveys a sense of the branches reaching up to the sun, try to glean as much as possible from the paltry light you have shown us. The sun itself obscured through the cloud is almost moon-like in its curtailed intensity. Most of all though, I like the detail you have captured in the lower clouds and the way that contrasts with the flatter, textureless majority of the image.
Critical stuff: Nothing at all really - any change would upset the balance you have created.
This image I would have hoped for more. It is ok as it is. But nothing exciting. That could be the moon or the sun behind the clouds. we cannot tell. There is also not much to give me any sort of feeling with. Some sticks, clouds and a ball. Hmmm, just not for me.
