Clouds in the Caribbean
Lonely beach with grass on a cloudy morning16 total reviews
Comment from wrhosie935
Funny, but just this morning when I went out for my one mile walk, I took my camera along because the sky was full of clouds and the sunrise was doing magical things to them while the full mon was still visible as well. And here I see some of the same looking clouds with the lights turned off. But, even in B&W I can feel and see the colors that must be there. Good moody photo.

Thank you so very much for your kind review. Yes its a funny think with these clouds. They are never the same and then the seam very much alike in different parts of the world.

I enjoy the clouds and the silhouetted grass. The balance of grass to sky feels about right although as a print this might be a rather large black area!
However the image rather lacks anything to keep my interest going and other than the title there is very little to suggest Caribbean.

Thank you for your interesting review. I called it Caribbean because it is. I wasn't trying to suggest the Caribbean. I leave that to travel journals. I want to show the unknown Caribbean what is often different from the imaging of the people. I'm sorry that I was unable to keep your interest but as Ansel Adams said: "There are always two people in every picture: the photographer and the viewer".

Beautiful sky and I can see a hint of the water beyond. Grey tones help dramatize the scene. I like the shot and the perspective from ground level. Your composition with the ground scene of about one third works well, giving emphasis to the expansiveness of the sky. Good job!

Thank you so very much. You made my day. That was exact what I was trying to do: give emphasis to the sky.

This is a nice photo I would like to see something more in it though there doesn't seem to be a focal point The sky looks good

Thats true. There is no real focal point. I took artistic licence in order to have a feel of the border less sky. Thanks for your review.
