March Sky

28/03/13

For me the best part about taking photographs of the sky is when the sun bursts through a break in the clouds like this. The rooftops beneath become silhouetted and almost looks as if it could be a montage already.

Here I was surprised by the brightness above the cloud and the small light breaking through in the distance.

I zoomed in for a closer view of the light, making it portrait to get the top of the cloud and the light above.

Shot's like these are why I love to shoot with natural light. Although the sky is over exposed, I am pleased with the lighting on the rooftops. The over exposure is also non important as I can alter/replace the sky whilst in Photoshop.

This mirror could be used as an interesting component for an image

I've taken this as I need a wide range of images that have similar components here the widow, water droplets and clouds return, but with a very different feel.

I have become aware of how much impact the sky and weather have on the atmosphere in these images. The contrast in colours and tone have significant range. 

I like the blues and oranges of the sunset, also the position of the sun by the spire as the clouds begin to touch above.
