The contrail actually works in this shot. I hate them otherwise in normal landscapes. 7

The Blue. This is nice and it has all the elements the voters love. Good Luck.

striking image! love the snow and the glowing grass at the foreground. I could live without the Master, though :), it kinda makes the whole scene a bit fake, if you know what I mean.

Very nice effect and a great looking shot. The fact that the clouds appears to be lower than the viewpoint adds a lot to it. 9

I don't suppose this was taken in Iceland.....

Looks like this was well timed, yet extraordinarily difficult to do. Very nicely executed image. 8

the contrails just kill this

I'm really hoping this is the winner as to me, it has the appearance as the work of a True Master of the Camera! 10

I recognize this!... could be Lord of the Rings, eh? Has the feeling of epic-ness, nice work

quite a surreal scene. I suppose the colours help with that, so they make sense so over saturated. I don't feel very engaged with the shot.

Beautiful scene and striking pose. The jetstream looks like a rod held by the Master.

The terrific colors and intense contrast create a very dramatic photo.

I'm guessing this is user windtale :)

This is fantastic. Just fantastic. Sorry, but I can't give you any advice to improve this.

wow, very cool!

Give this guy a scythe in hand and he could easily pass for "The Grim Ripper." even that title would have had more impact :)
i like the use of ND filter here or is it achieved in post-processing? either way, cool photograph.
