From the same stormy sunrise as the previous one - March 2014

Nice clouds. Slight less foreground?

I'm intrigued by how the extreme wide angle lens has vertically compressed the rock formations. That is an amazing sky. There's significant extra brightness in the center.

I love the textures in the clouds and the formation. I do think a crop from the bottom to just above the large rock in the foreground would balance things out a bit better. The light here is very nice, and the processing looks good.

Alberto,

I much prefer this one. The sage/brush seems to work more in concert with the overall scene than that lone boulder - at least for me anyway.

No biggie, but I think you could shave a little off the left side? Otherwise, I like this as presented. Nicely composed.

Alberto, Excellent work capturing this wonderful landscape scene! Great light, super nice color and the clouds look fantastic. Works great for me as it is but just a bit off the left as Lon mentioned works well too. Just in past that first little dip in the rock does it. I like this very much!

The rich colors are striking Alberto. The midrange light and sky are nice. I wish the foreground was a little brighter.

Hi Alberto,

Slight crop from the bottom as other reviewers suggested is my only recommended edit. Awesome sky--well done.................Jim

Thank you all - I agree about the crop suggestion, here it goes.

Killer sky, Alberto. I do think the repost is an improvement. I might brighten the sky a bit because it is soooo nice. Beautiful image.
