A familiar sight for most photographers who visited the isle of Skye in Scotland; The old man of Storr at dawn. I underexposed intentinally to silhouette the rock pillars against the morning sky.

What a fantastic study in light! The color palette and range of tones here are simply amazing.

I like the dark and moody feel you captured here Jorne. I agree with Guy about the very nice color palette.

Dramatic and beautiful. I like the rocks kept as graphic elements. Very nice!

Hi Jorne - I really like the silhouette here. The drama in the sky is really beautiful, too. The yellow tones look a little brown and muddy to me. Otherwise, this is a really cool image!
