Critique Welcomed Montana's High Plains

[Ralph Thornton]

Driving home the other evening I was treated to this view of the high plains of Montana. Someone was getting a little rain.

Wowee! that's some cloud!

 

[Pete Askew]

Now that is spectacular and very nicely captured. A fine shot indeed Ralph.

 

[Glen Roberts]

Has someone been testing "Nukes" again!!!???.

 

[Paul Lange]

It does have that look about it Glen, doesn't it! Nice capture Ralph, very spectacular but something that you'll want to view but not experience.

 

[Brian Moore]

It really is "Big Sky Country" Ralph. Great shot.

 

[Ralph Thornton]

Thanks!

The idea of a mushroom cloud never crossed my mind until Glen mentioned it here. Now the he mentioned it I can see the resemblance. And somewhere out there under that could or at least on the plains there are underground ICBM silos!

 

[Lesley Jones]

More than a little rain I would imagine. This is indeed a very fine landscape

 

[Ralph Thornton]

Would anyone crop the photo to get the horizon line off the center of the image?

I wouldn't crop it Ralph. (Right Pete?)

 

[Pete Askew]

No, I think part of its strength as an image is that it shows the equal relationship between land and sky. I'd leave it is as it is (I must be feeling unwell!).

Thanks guys!
