Bobbly clouds
Posted by John Leech (Grange-over-Sands, United Kingdom) on 18 March 2009 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.
This is one of my faves of this view. It was also a turning point in some of my processing - a stepping stone which helped me define some of my later work.
I'm sure most visitors to my pages will be familiar with Ian Bramham's photography Ian Bramham. I've followed his emerging talent since he first bought a DSLR - not that his talent took long to emerge. I'm sure any viewers who have not seen his work will appreciate this link.

I can see why this is one of your favourites. It's been fascinating to see just how many variations can be had from one place.

@Mike: I've found it a worthwhile study, taking some shots where I usually would not, but learning about light as the project develops.

Yes the subtle colours and lines give this one a lift

Fantastic image! I love the stark edge to the clouds which is repeated again with the forms on the landscape.

great composition and vision behind this photo! i love the various layers of hills, clouds and sky - they are lined up nicely and the clouds especially look as though they were cut out - good contrast here!

@DarkElf: The cut-out clouds - they look like something from a comic book to me. Thanks for the comments DarkElf and all.
