		| | So what was your secret?  I can't believe this was 157.  I thought for sure we'd see this in the Top 10. |

		| | This is a very ambitious landscape, because it has so little land in it!  For me it works very well.  I like the tower ( I don't think it's a lighthouse?) ... it gives scale and depth to the marvellous cloudscape.  7 |

		| | Dramatic in the sky.  I like this.  Your contrast is on the edge for the cloud.  Good luck.  I see this was checked.  Glad you passed. Third time I have looked.  Just fantastic. |

		| | Did you sharpen the clouds to make them look surreal or unnatural?  It just looks a little off to me. |

		| | My idea of a landscape photo is one that captures the natural environment.  Some editing is fine!!  I just feel that this is a bit much. I would really like to see it unedited, a little more "aunatural". |

		| | That is cool, very nice job. |

		| | VERY draqmatic! The tower on the hill makes the picture even more interesting. The little small white buildings in the left bottom part are somewhat disturbing my eye. |

		| | Wow. I'm gonna sit here for 30 seconds and figure how this is done with basic editing.  OK, it's was more than 30 seconds.  I'm going to give you a 9 but I'm gonna ask for validation (sorry).  I just can't see how this was done without selection.  Hmmm...coming back.  perhaps a gradient yellow filter on the lens to remove blue and then desaturate yellows?  I hope this gets validated because I'm very intrigued about the effect and will be first in line to find out how it was done. |

		| | Nice idea, but overprocessed. | 
 |

		| | I woudl have preferred to have seen more of the 'land'. | 
 |

		| | wow.those clouds scare me.looks like really thick smoke.very cool.one of the best in my opinion.9 | 
 | 
		
			|  | 11/09/2005 09:07:47 PM | 
		| | Wow what a sky I love how you brought it out to really give impact. 9 |

		| | The sky is very dramatic.  I really like the sky.  But I would either have included more of the ground below or no ground.  What you have there now is just enough land that I am staring at it trying to figure out what it is and what that white at the top of the hill is.  The clouds alone would have been impressive. |

		| | cool clouds but the rest of the picture is boring | 
 | 
		
			|  | 11/09/2005 01:22:56 PM | 
		| | I like the bottom half of your photo, but those clouds look overly processed and kind of fake to me, especially in the highlight areas. | 
 |

		| | I like how you have captured the texture and movement in the clouds. | 
 |

		| | Nice capture, those clouds look really spooky. |

		| | Nice editing for added cloud freakiness |
