WOW John! Wonderful! Why you chose to post it under Impressionism is a mystery to me but post it everywhere 'cause it surely is beautiful.

A great photo but I always associate impressionism with color. The Impressionists were excited by contemporary developments in color theory which helped their search for a more exact analysis of the effects of color and light in nature.

It's in the tone with our time! So apocalyptic! The grain makes it like a totally uncontrollable sand storm, on top of everything.

Very well observed and shown this visual paradox!

Well Ben, I am lost here and do not like this ominous fog. And, BTW, this is not an abstract image either. I see the branch, I just don't support what seems like a treatment formula.

The focal point issue is not cast in stone.
Picasso first learned the rules of art then he slowly and systematically explored all the ways to break them.
In this great image, the movement of the water and steam is spectacular and I stare at the dead center of the image.

As a PS, I tend to like a lot, when well done, the perfect symmetrical compositions.
