Re: PESO - Storm Brewing (the re-do)
I like this... Think I forgot to comment earlier Brewing storms always get me and the figure adds, of course.

Re: PESO - Storm Brewing (the re-do)
For me, the new one has much more drama and suits the title better. The 1st one doesn't suggest imminent storm to me, but rather just overcast. Is good, Frank!

Re: PESO - Storm Brewing (the re-do)
Interesting and unconventional shot - I like both but this second one more. The darker skies in the upper left somewhate balance the dark patch of trees in the lower right, and there is less of a sense of being pulled out of the frame. But the tension and brooding implicit in the off balanced composition is still there. On 9/6/2012 8:08 AM, frank theriault wrote: Darkened the clouds.
