I like the color here. Silhouettes and rippling reflections work well.

Is the idea behing this that it's a "new storm"? I like the location of this. Nice with the leaves to the left, and the horizon like that. The horizon is a bit crooked in relation to the edge of the photo. You could tilt it a slight bit to the right and be just fine. I like the natural grey-ish blues. Good luck in the challenge.

Excellent. Slightly blown out on the sky, but detail is outstanding otherwise. Looks like Lake Pontchartrain?

Missing composition I think ...

Good balance

This is incredibly appealing to my eye. The cloud formations against the sea with the sky on the horizon...........Coloring............peacefulness. Very good =8 syamjonimi

i liike this, but i don't "feel new".....
08/16/2002 10:07:00 AM
I like the contrast between the clouds and the light sky in the back of the photo
08/16/2002 02:44:00 AM
I really like this photo. The turquoise colouring and black silhouettes create a very serene mood.

The horizon is slightly tilted - if this was intentional, I don't think it adds anything. Otherwise, the photo does not hold my attention. Sorry ;} (sheepish grin)

This is an interesting concept for 'new'... The horizon is nice and level... I'm not sure that I really like the sharp contrast between the white and dark in the sky against the water in this one... seems a little flat :) - jmsetzler

like the shot, but it doesn't really say "new" to me
08/14/2002 07:35:00 AM
Yikes! good capture.
08/14/2002 06:17:00 AM
There seems to be something missing. I'm not an experienced photographer but I feel it needs something center picture.

This is a really atmospheric shot; it's full of drama, great lighting. What I really like is the way it also captures the sense of calm. Thus, it really does capture the beginning of a new stormâ€Â¦ (10)

The gloom is captured very well here without losing too much foreground detail. I think I might have cropped closer in to lose the bush in the lower left.

I'm not sure how this is something new, I guess you were trying to show that after the rain there will be a new rainbow? But it is a very nice picture, I'd like a link to it, so I can make it a screensaver. titotapado

new storm?
08/13/2002 09:27:00 AM
I love the distinct separations of the clouds, sky and water.
08/12/2002 04:48:00 PM
That looks like a pretty wicked storm.
08/12/2002 04:15:00 PM
Great shot !!
08/12/2002 03:47:00 PM
The more I look at it, the more I like it. I like the composition and the color. lhall
08/12/2002 02:26:00 PM
Very well done!! I love the details and contrast in the sky, and the items in the foreground make the image more interesting, too.
08/12/2002 01:53:00 PM
The light between the sea and clouds is too bright and distracting. Otherwise, the overall composition is good.
08/12/2002 08:40:00 AM
Relevance to the challenge is missing for me. 2 Jak
08/12/2002 07:40:00 AM
Perhaps scary, dark, mysterious.... but new?
08/12/2002 01:48:00 AM
I like the title and the meaning of it but think it will be better with a better picture, the details in the sky should be bigger part of the pic and less sea in it. rate it 2:)

very nice mood in this photo. I think its slightly slanted though, maybe if you slightly rotated it clockwise...
