Beautiful job, Carsten. You got phenomenal "push" on this one, with the masking perhaps but also with the initiallly powerful image!

Woweeee! A heart-stopper indeed. You've got me using layer masks like never before my friend. And you've raised my photo technique consciousness in the field as well. Thanks.

P.S. Just sneaking a brief UF fix..hope to be back soon.

Thank you, Rolf, for this comment - GREAT commendation for me since I try not do overdo my digital work and go for an image that might be bold but doesn`t look unreal.
I`ve had a darkroom myself and I think I can value the merits of a good analogue print.
Regards;
Carsten

Hallo, vielen Dank für den Kommentar.
Dieses Photoshop-Plugin "Convert to B&W Pro" habe ich mir zugelegt, weil es ein "Film-Feeling" beim Color > B&W umwandeln ermöglicht. Ich hatte früher eine Dunkelkammer und meist mit FP4 gearbeitet. Dieses Plugin simuliert gewissermaßen den analogen B&W Prozeß (Negativ und Papier), und man kann die charakteristische Farbsensitivität einzelner SW-Filme bzw. das Multigrade System nachvollziehen. Natürlich ist das nicht dasselbe wie analoges SW, aber m.E. das Beste im digitalen Bereich für mein Empfinden.
Schönen Sonntag noch -
Carsten

Wonderful. The cloud formation would certainly make you notice. It looks like a monster, hopefully guarding not attacking the trees. Love how you use PS for great effects.

oh wow! amazing! The clouds look like a larer version of the trees in front. Excelent work! The two grayish clouds don't really add to the overall looks. I wouldn't miss them if they were gone :)
I would love to see a color version of this!

The clouds seem to come out from the screen. Veery nice also the composition. The two trees so simmetric seems to form the body of anothe more big tree formed by the clouds.
Nicely done.

These clouds sure are wonderful and well worth the effort. Beautifully fluffy and wonderful tonal range in this b&w shot.
I agree with your appraisal of rules, also, Carsten.
The two trees play a very important part in this composition and you did very well to find and frame them in this way.
Thanks for your comment, Carsten.
