Everything you presented us with here is lovely, but there is so much of everything that my eye does not know where to go. Having so much action on the middle of the image, with nothing but empty grass in the foreground makes me feel like I filled up on boring appetizers before a great main course and salad were served and there s no room for desert and cofee. Had you landed a cow, a lovely flower, or even an interesting clump of grass in the right foreground, I feel this would have been close to the ribbons.
As Robert Capa once said, “If your pictures aren’t good enough, you’re not close enough.” And I think that applies here, there is so much wonderful stuff here, and the editing is top-notch, just move closer.
A nice scene and those clouds are great, thought I find the scene a little washed out, perhaps that was intentional but I would liked to have seen a little more detail in those lighter clouds.4
I'm taking part in the Melethia comment on the first tens shots challenge.
I love the green ... Don't have a lot of that where I am. This reminds me of the sights when we go to see my parents. I'm going to go settle in on the porch to watch the coming storm. My favorite in this challenge.
What a nice pastoral scene contrasted with that tumultuous sky! Personally, I wonder how this might be if more of the grass had been cropped putting more of an emphasis on the sky to match the title? Just a thought.
