This was taken during my visit to Bisti Badland in April. The fast approaching storm brought dramatic cloud, but no rain. I was lucky.

Nice capture. A fascinating effect of erosion which you presented well. Nice vignetting and composition. I am feeling odd at the lack ...utter void...of colors in the sky...looks spooky.

Nice comp and good mood! I like the way the staggering of the hoodoos is matched by the flow in the clouds--cool. For my tastes, it looks a tad too 'HDR'ish, like an overuse of the S-H tool or something similar. I understand wanting to introduce more contrast in the sky for a dramatic effect, i just personally think it would look better a tad brighter in back (brighter darks). Just my preference

Thanks, Stan. I am tempting to convert it to B&W...

I like the comp and the mood. Very interesting sky but it has a HDR look to me. Otherwise I really like it.
