Amazing heavy sky, Giorgio, and a very surprising piece of quiet sky beneath the huge cloud. I like the way you have filled 2/3 of the frame with this cloud. Beautiful.

Sembra un'onda anomala che piomba sulla città addormentata. Presagio di sciagure. Oppure, metafisicamente, tormenti dell'anima in una notte che si prevede agitata. In ogni caso una inquietante composizione. Treviso, da questo pov, sembra una metropoli

Is that for real? What an interesting storm and picture. Well done

buongiorno giorgio, amazing, dangerous, stormy sky! it is worth having such a window to look through :-)))
very impressive;
ciao, jerzy

Good shot capturing the power of nature which is always shown at its most dramatic when huge cumunonimbus storm clouds block at the light and create nighttime light during the day.

Hi Giorgio. I find your photo very interesting. It produce a sensation of fear and expectation for the rain. The composition is very good beacause the attention is in the clouds but the "city is there". Very good job.

Wow, it seems if here are two pictures, the dark and heavy clouds, a line between and the city, this is an amazing weathershot-Giorgio, nice seen !

Looks like the end of the world or the end of Treviso at least.

I like it a lot, well captured and nice straight horizon too.

Cheers

Ciao Giorgio,
interessante documento!

Cioè voglio dire: quanto ci hai messo prima di scappare a questo tsunami di nuvole!!

Bello scatto.
Davide

Awfully great stormy sky!
The light of the city increased a dramatic scene.
Excellent!

Hi Giorgio,
This is a terrific shot and I am glad you captured it so well. Looking at the clouds would make anyone run for cover. Your division of space is fantastic. The lights of the building clearly suggest the time and it added spice to this composition. Congratulations!!! Regards.

Hi Giorgio,
Very dramatic sky contrasting with the little clear sky at horizont.

WOW !!!!!
Veramente spettacolare! Sembra una scena alla "Indipendence day"!
Ottima la scelta compsitiva di posizionare l'orizzonte ad 1/3 del fotogramma. Cosi' facendo hai reso le nubi molto piu' opprimenti e minacciose!
Ed ora..... si salvi chi può !!!!!!
Ciao Matteo

Wow, a very impressive sky with those clouds! The colours and the city are very good! Very well done! :-D

Hi Giorgio,
You caught an excellent moment of the nature! Very impressive sky. I like the slow shutter sppeed and weird colours. Great management of the light. Very well done.

Regards John

Wow, Giorgio. What a great exposure, well done. Leaving your shutter open 30 seconds was an excellent move. Congratulations on an amazing picture!
Matt

Oh my god, it's the end of the bl**dy world!!! Run for the hills, oh damn, that isn't going to help.

Simply an incredible nature shot. Amazing. You did great to fill the frame with mostly sky. I'd ditch the drop shadow on the frame though, it's tacky looking.

Bellissima! La linea chiara prima delle nuvole in temesta è meravigliosa

Wow, Giorgio, m'ero perso questa foto drammatica! Giustamente ha avuto un grande successo, le nuvole sembrano parte di un dipinto ... anche se la parte più spettacolare sono le nuvole alle quali hai dato giustamente ampio spazio, trovo che anche le strato azzurro e la città illuminata qua e là siano molto attraenti, un capolavoro!

This one is great Giorgio. The cloouds are nothing but scaring. Still the calm belt in the lower part. Good contrast to the city already with some lights lit. Good perspective and placement of the horizon

Really threatening sky. It looks as if the best thing would be to get your gear and get out of there. Great light in the city as well.
Thanks,

Ciao Giorgio,
bella e drammatica immagine, quasi Hollywoodiana, con un cielo imponente e incombente sulla città che sembra impotente davanti agli eventi.
Buona l'esposizione anche in Program con una compatta (anche se è una signora compatta).
ps: non vorrei che il commento sembrasse uno "scambio" per i commenti che mi hai postato, è che ti vedo su TE per la prima volta (credo) e sto guardando al tuo portfolio con interesse.
Ciao,
Stefano

WOW... I just dont believe you see this in real life, you must have been busy with photoshop, but whatever, its a great picture.

Ciao Giorgio,
complimenti per la drammatica immagine!
Sembra una devastante tempesta di sabbia che sta per abbattersi su Treviso!
Ottima composizione.
Buona settimana!
