Description

Some of you may recognize this as an image I posted in the forum. The dramatic cloudbank and overall composition of the image really speaks to me, and for this version I removed the color from the already desaturated image to further enhance the color of the lights and the ominous nature of the storm.

Very ominous and yet also moody. THe desaturation is the right move and leaving the lights at red makes this an interesting illustrative photograph for an article.

FINALLY!!!! Ive been waiting for this one. I think its simply amazing!!! And just as the last time i saw it, my eyes are immidiatly drawn to that SUV in the front. Dont know why, the logical thing would be to first notice those red lights dont ya think. Excellent capture indeed, very moody. Have a superb day #:O)
