The herd before the storm Photo

Photographer’s Note

Rushed home in order not to get soaked by those heavy clouds, but could not resist stopping to jump a few fences to capture those shep deminished by the havy clouds. The light is quite gloomy on this one.

PS: Slight curves adjustment and sharpening (no colour saturation this is how it looked!).

This is a lovely photo. What attracted me to this picture were the unusual colors in the sky. The unusual light was also affecting the sheep but the lower half of the picture was so dark that it was difficult to notice. I did some work on that and posted the results in Workshop for your consideration.

Yes, I agree, those are incredible colours, you can imagine it absolutely pelting it down shortly after, very dramatic, I like Linda's version too, bringing out the lighter elements of the land.

I'm amazed by the colours of this photo! Really nice contrast between the left clouds and the right ones. The sheep also captured on the ground makes this composition really good.
