    Pal Tree in the Storm

    I took this shot about a week ago durring the storms that went through California. I didn't like the color version so I am trying something different in B/W. Let me know what you think.

    It conveys the feeling of a storm really well, I can feel the wind pushing that tree around. the skies are also very dramatic. I don't know if the silhouette works here but I think it further drives home a very graphic and dramatic kinda shot.

    Re: Pal Tree in the Storm

    I like it, but my first thought was that it doesn't really stand alone. This might be one of three on a wall, each giving us a different shape as the storm blew the palm fronds into different directions.

    Thanks for sharing. I have a photo listed on the Critique board, as well, should you like to comment.
