blue skies beyondby
ScantyNebulaComment by e301: Your Critique Club moment
got to agree with the noise comments - an image tidying programme would help no end: but I should also say that that's as much to do with the challenge as anything. I think of NG photography as being technically highly assured - clean, exact, quite high contrast - and this is almost the opposite.
Which is not to say I don't quite like it, just that it was never going to do so well in this challenge. I like the gentle toning of the pic, the movement of colour in the skies - I think I'd almost like it more
without the lump of land in it, so that it would be more abstract.
That land is perhaps part of the problem - or rather your placement of it within frame. It isn't forming a major part of the composition, not being far enough into frame for that, but also it's not working to frame anything, balance anything, and of itself it's pretty dull to me - a lump of rock and snow.
Your title confuses too - I'd expect to see a storm cloud, or some more present threat with blue skies, whereas your entire image is blue, with just a hint of gentle pink.
