Very nice. I love the clouds and leading lines.

The solitary tree adds something, almost like a survivor of time's tragedy.

Kick-ass shot! How did you edit it, David?

[deetheturk]

Thanks Murat,i done the editing in Lightroom,i think i was lucky having a great sky to work with!

[Shadowman]

Nice, like the humor in the title also.

Tremendous sky, great composition, is it a modern path that runs through the image David

Thanks Peter,yes it is,for a good few years now they have been rebuilding old Roman ruins at Patara here in Turkey and unfortunately they have put modern paths running through it!

Wonderful shot with the road as a leading line to the ruin and wonderful clouds. I might consider crpping out some of the sky above the cloud bank but, the image is very nice as it is...

[Mike Buckley]

Very nice, David. That sky is like a magnet on steroids drawing me into the image.

[deetheturk]

Cheers Richard,and thank you for taking time to look and comment!

[deetheturk]

Thanks Mike,it makes our job easier when presented with a sky like this to work with!

Oh my! I will never get to your standard! The sky itself is excellent...the whole picture is nicely done...

[Donald]

Oh my! I will never get to your standard!

Yes you can. It's all about learning and practice and developing that vision.

Brilliant, David. What a sky! Beautiful management of light on the ruins and the land.

Thank you Isabel,don't sell yourself short,I agree with Donald you can do it,just practise then practise some more and like this image it sometimes all comes together

[deetheturk]

Cheers Donald,thanks for commenting,it means more to me coming from you as you are primarily a monochrome shooter!
