Storm brewing at Peyia

Storm brewing at Peyia
This area of rocky coastline just north of Paphos in Cyrus is a delight to explore but it can be very dangerous to man and shipping alike. This storm came from nowhere and was gone just as quickly. Not the ideal conditions for swimming or a small boat. The monochrome here helps convey the feelings I saw here too.

Enjoy full screen.

Threatening sky, menacing seas, dangerous rocks............what an amazing combination and they make an awesome image Herb!

Your composition is spot on and I really like your B/W conversion. Viewed large, the detail in the rocks and sea is terrific and terrifying..!!

Outstanding..!

Hi Keith, once again you comment here 'Honours Me!' I took a few around here with this black sky lighting which, as you know, I love. In actual fact the colour version of this looks impressive too but I am on a monochrome slide here :) Good that you continue to like these fully viewed. I have tried to keep my photos a reasonably large size to cater for such folk as you but have had it pointed out to me a few times that I make it too easy for copying infringements. Ah well!
Cheers, Herb

Another to please you Frank. I know too that you have some pretty atmospheric weather in the US. For me -well not really sunbathing weather but for photography -its the tops.

Herb Riddle club has replied to Eva Lewitus club
My pleasure Eva. Yes, I take all my digital photos in colour and then convert the ones that I have a fancy to. That's OK to prefer one over the other. Its all about personal choices in the end :) H
