[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Water drops are returning to the earth and our “Much Rainy Season” is starting.

This field is closer to us with car and widely open area around our neighborhood for a while because right part of paved road is a new development for producing new parcels by landowners. They are still firing green plant and also roots of Amazon rainforest in their own land.

A worker is waiting under jerrybuilt roof at front of the sign table for end of coming rain.

My photo is stitched from 3 vertically taken shots without tripod.

Temperature was closer to 40 degree Celsius (104 Fahrenheit) during my shoot time around 12:30, yesterday.

I was searching for those clouds when returning from shopping yesterday. This scene was not more visible then 10 minutes and needed to be shooting immediately while my wife’s chocolates melting in the car.

Cheers

Hi Ertugrul,

Great shot! The composition, colors and sharpness are all excellent. This was taken before a downpour, right? The lighting is perfect.

Thanks for sharing.

Cheers!

Hi Ertugrul,
the Surinam skies are realy impressive. Thisoner is remarkable with the dark stripe and the blue hole. I've seen tropical showers but never that blue hole,
regards, gerrit

Ciao Ertugrul, majestic and terrifying sky, splendid light, beautifulst photo once again Bravo
Ciao Silvio

Merhaba Ertuğrul,
Çok yağmurlu mevsim başladığına göre bu tür karanlık bulutlu fotoğraflarını daha sık göreceğiz. Ben özellikle yolun sonundaki ışığı çok beğendim.
Selamlar. Uğur

Hello Ertugrul,

Amazing view :) The composition is very well balanced with this road on the left, and the light and the dark sky give a very special atmosphere to your picture.

Best regards, Laurent.

Merhaba Ertugrul,
Another great composition stitching 3 photos, with which you obtain an angle very opened with a great landscape and a lot of depth. The road offers us a good perspective, and takes us towards a few really impressive clouds of storm.
Good lighting and a few splendid colors, in spite of the environment increasingly dark for the storm that approaches. The hole in the clouds to the left side where one sees the blue sky is a magnificent detail.
Nice shot.
Regards, my friend,
Josep

Hi Ertugrul!

Scaring storm and very nice shot! You has captured in an impressive way the strenght of the sky and clouds. I like too the curve made by the road and the path, it creates a circular movement that concentrates the attention in the menacing clouds. Very well done! Best wishes,

Angel.

Good shooting and good stitching too. The colours and contrast are excellent and the image is sharp.

What an incredible sky!... It's a breathtaking photograph and perfect composition... The sky's colors and its contrast between the yellow and brown are also perfect... Wonderful point of view and perspective too...

Hi Ertugrul!
Nice shot! I really like this amazing sk, so dark on the right and clear on the left.I also like the detail of the man hidding from rain.
Well done!
Regards, Anabela

Olá Ertugrul, another impressive capture of the threatening sky on your place. This one is really scary, with that big curve forming a kind of a big hole in the sky, but I guess that you are used to it. Excellent composition of the three stitched photos.
Best regards,
Ricardo

Hi, Ertugrul! It's an impressive shot, showing a typical equatorial sky, full of heavy clouds. What a storm! Well done, as ever! Best regards, my friend! Miguel.

Merhaba Ertugrul,
Very nice panorama, technically very good, amazing light and sky. I like the compo, but I think is below the level you used us, as it lacks the strength and/or dynamism of other genial photos you post before.
Too bad for the noise in the sky, as it is amazingly dramatic and menacing.

Hallo from Germany!
I am interested in meteorology, but I never have seen such a cloud. It is fascinating and threatening at the same time. I really would like to see it here, but I think this won't be possible because of temperatures here ;-)
Nevertheless - a great photo, thank you for showing!
Have a nice sunday!

Bonjour Ertugrul,
Cette scčne est vraiment impressionnante, et on imagine les trombes d'eau qui vont arrivées. Une photo d'une grande nettété jusqu'ŕ l'infini, des nuages bien dessinés et une belle lumičre.
Joli travail.
Bon dimanche
Amicalement

Hola Ertugrul,

Increíble escena, la intensidad del cielo crea una atmósfera única, me gusta la profundidad de la carretera, aunque no creo que sea buena idea seguirla por la tormenta, buena texturas y fantásticos contrastes, gracias por compartirlo.

Saludos
José

Excellent but a bit terryfying mood Ertugrul:)))
Fantastic compo, light and this powerful predominant sky!!

Hello Parbo,
very impressive shot here with this terrific dark clouds. Very well cropped with great depth and lighting. It is great to see the road leading just in direction of the hole created in the stormy clouds. It is a kind of way to escape. Great one, my friend!
Tfs and have a nice week!

Nice work, the lighting effect of the sun against the storm clouds works well, and also allows for strong saturated colors. The placement of the road on the left works well, leading into the one light spot in the storm.

Thanks!

Very dramatic sky. Excellent compsotion with this dark sky in the background and coloured land. Well done.

Hello Ertugrul - that is some powerful storm, the contrast is eye catching, I like the banana fields on the left side of the road, pity the right side of the road is not as appealing.

How many colors in the sky! A terrific weather, well captured. I suppose that you have been quickly in capturing these shots... because weather changes so fast when a storm arrives, I remember a storm in Kefalonia: one photo and at once a lot of rain.

Hi Ertugrul.

Did you search the clouds?
Fantastic. Sometimes I've done too.

Very nice photo and composition (and also the clouds and the note and... and the postprocessing).

Regards.

Hello Ertugrul -

Wow, the fury of Mother Nature! This is a stunning image with the road leading us into the center of the storm, the dark clouds balanced by the white sides and blue patch, and interesting details in the foreground. Excellent exposure! Excellent Image!

Thank you for sharing

Hi Ertugrul
Fantastic shot of a threatening sky. Looks like there is a blue hole at the end of the road...maybe the 4th dimension.

Hello, Ertugrul!
I have always been impressed by the meteorology and weather phenomenons... and this view brings me a thought about tornados and similar things... Fantastic, heavy and dangerous clouds and beautiful lighting, bringing a perfect contrast to the scene and making colors clear and vibrant. Good job!

Greg

Hi Ertugrul,
nice compo,with this huge cloud over the earth.I think that these clouds which diverted in rain provoke giant destruction.Never mind,your shot has nice colours and lightness tied with contrasr.
Great photo.

Hello Ertugrul
This is a very dramatic sky, and i like the panorama view of this landscape.
Very nice stiching work

hello Ertugrul,
that is one nasty looking cloud! I like a lot how you have created this photo and allowed the sky to dominate the scene, it certainly creates a sense of drama. smart idea to include the person to let the viewer appreciate the scale. flawless stitching, this is excellent work!

Hi Ertugrul,

this must have been overwhelming moment, standing there under this massive dramatic clouds, so full of power and anger. They appear so low and frightening but on the other hand so impressive and ...well... marvelous! I like that openend spot just straight ahead with cyan sky clearly visible and clouds converting into the rain. Simply magnificent, there is nothing more to add!
