This was a quick shot when my husband pointed up at the sky while we were at the beach. I had my camera set to B & W, which I never do usually, so when I was processing this I accicently got this version playing with contrast. I liked it and left it this way as kind of a fun image.

Striking...I love this shot and photo with the use of negitive spaces...Hmmm, I so happen to have shot a similar image myself about 2 weeks ago...with some birds flying over some trees....converted to b/q and uped the levels a tad to create the sky to wash out....However, it's in a heavy editing mode...Shot it as a snap shot, however, I wished I had gotten a better image...but strikeing and yet just simple...Simple shot seems to go futher than some photo that is to busy..it just depends...

This is great black on white go with creativity also. Remember luck and being in the right place has a lot to do with getting an excellent image.

Great capture. The photo is a bit stark (black/white) but that does add a nice feel. It's an interesting photo, that would work best in a set of photos for a particular subject (either the city you were in, or birds, or black/white). I picture it in a series at a museum, but not alone on a wall of a house. Very clean photo. Good job!

Hi Kylie,

I would treat this like a b/w shot; it looks that way to me! Perhaps you'll want to shift it over deliberately. I love the line. Really fine work! I love stark, minimalist images like this, and this one is done quite well.

I like this shot very much, although I would tidy the cyan pixels in the top left. Without those, this looks like a b&w to me, rather than an overcast day as someone mentioned below.

I think this is a cool artistic shot that wouldn't fare well on here because it doesn't fall into the "traditional photography" genre.

Oh, the possibilities, ouch, such a brief time to shoot! I'm assuming you had a clear sky, but it's hard to tell because the sky is overexposed. Imagine this shot with a deep blue gradient behind it. Did you use a polarizing filter?
