Large Format Landscapes

Storm rolling in over the east ridge of Amicalola Falls State Park. It was pouring rain and I had just a small umbrella with me. I need to buy one of those big golf umbrellas. The wind was whipping up too.

Bryan, there is so much that is good about that image.

Thanks Randy! I not totally sold on it. I broke the "rule" about centered horizons and I wasn't sure there was much visual interest beyond the dark clouds (burned in heavily to look as it did then and as I pre-visualized for print). Might try making a little 11x14 enlargement of this negative in the darkroom.

Bryan, I like the composition. For me, I would like to see more contrast/lower key rendition of the lighter clouds.

Thanks, so you mean something like this?



I'm a sucker for high-contrast clouds, so this is a bit more subdued. An interesting idea.

Thank you Renato...I can see some similarities within the Southern Hemisphere...

Bryan, very nice. It must have been nice to be there as the weather changed.
