Great effect you've created with the clouds. Very ominous. The bird is an essential element in this drama. Excellent job.

I can only echo Allen's comments. This is an outstanding (and dramatic) b&w image, Hamed!

Those luminous clouds are pure magic Hamed, and the bird of course is perfect to top it all off. And the B&W conversion is wonderful. This is art!

Outstanding Hamed! Great impact! I do enjoy this very much and will be curious to hear about your "different" processing. Please, don't tell me it's a composite! Awesome processing!

These mammatus clouds are just amazing! I like the way it was processed.

Something quite different from you, and delightful. Perfect for B&W - tells a great story.

Excellent thought, to include the bird and avoid the land. Nicely done.

Outstanding!

(a little sand dune in the middle would put it over the top, though

)

Impressive amount of drama you have here. The sky looks like fire and smoke to me. Excellent!

Hi Hamed, This is wonderful! I love it. As amazing as the sky is, the bird in flight makes this awesome!

Very cool Hamed. I like your processing and placement of the bird.
PS: doesn't this belong in Avian?

Quite different from your usual posts, Hamed. Those clouds are dripping with mood and drama and the bird is the final piece of the puzzle. Outstanding image!

The over-the-top bw processing with the bird flying towards the "light" makes this one of my favorites of yours!! Well done.
