March Photo Challenge - Comments

[MiG]

There are so many awesome clouds that I feel guilty for choosing based on the photo as a whole, rather than just the subject. gaa_ian's is the one that strikes me as being the nicest even though some of the other clouds are more "special".

[iceman (Mike)]

Mig! You're still alive! Welcome back!

[Muddy Diver]

Love your signature MIG

I refuse to vote this month! How the hell am I supposed to pick the best 5 out of that lot. Sheesh.

You guys and gals amaze me. They are all great shots but most of them would come undert the category of truely exceptional. Thanks for sharing them everyone.

[Striker (Tony)]

Totaly agree Paul

This months images have far out performed my expectations.

Great job all..pat yourselves on the back.

[RAJAH235]

Some more great images been posted. How the hell are we supposed to make a judgement with all those fantastic shots.
Well done to all. (me included).

[asimov (John)]

I'll pass on voting too this month!

[acropolite (Phil)]

I'm jealous of you guys in the tropics, nice big fluffy clouds and thunderstorms, a high standard again this month.

[iceman (Mike)]

Awesome shot Gary, lovely!

[33South (Chris)]

Hey Gary nice feel to the picture, if it doesnt win, or even if it does I would recommened entering it again when someone picks "Bridges" as the subject.

[RB (Andrew)]

I really like that one Gary.

[Astroman (Andrew Wall)]

[iceman (Mike)]

You can change it until the end of the month.

Thanks!
Yeah, next time someone picks "Old man sitting on picnic table in a park, where two of the Great Lakes meet, next to a bridge, near a tree, while a storm moves in at sunset" as the subject, I'll have to enter this photo. Bet I'll place in the top twenty!

OKay changed my image, here is another I was going to add but because of the way it was done, I thought it would not be ideal for a contest..

[iceman (Mike)]

How was it done? Looks like the start of a tornado!

Your new entry in the contest is way better than the other one, although the other one was really nice too! Welld one.

[Astroman (Andrew Wall)]

The funnel is actually a fake, I was showing someone how easy it was to get a "normal" cloud image and play around with photoshop (or any other editing program) and put something in there that isn't. I don't like doing this but it was an example of how easy it is. If I see single funnel/tornado images (with no others with it), I expect some sort of proof like video or a series of images to back up the single image. Otherwise it "could" be a fake. I like it though even though it is fake.

Here is the original image.

[RB (Andrew)]

Andrew (Astroman) the one you entered now in the competition is stunning, I love the contrasty colours and wide composition.

Excellent.
