Description
I suppose what intrigued me most about this image was not the juxtapositioning of man's power versus nature's power; but the advancing threat on the horizon.
Thank you all for taking your time to view my artistic scribblings. Your comments and suggestions are not only deeply appreciated but valued highly.

Beautiful clouds..so powerful looking!! You do such wonderful photography shots! You have great talent! Excellent!!!
Excellent postwork. Those clouds seem to be alive on my screen. Well done indeed!!!
Amazing atmosphere!!! Very beautiful shot!!!
A wonderful picture and I can only say it again I love the black and white pictures. They have you a lot more to tell than the colour ones!!! Really great!! An excellent work!
Fabulous B/W art with a real fascinating lightning and B/W contrast! Excellent scene a real fabulous looking atmosphere! VOTE
beautiful cloudscape! the town under is so little! beautiful choice of tones and contrast!
super looking; look like the town is so small with the clouds
Man's power is TINY! ;) Imposing image, but just a tad too sharp for my tastes.
HoHo where it goes fallen this storm. I think that I will shelter me I do not want to be to soak. Cheer ;)
Super photo, excellent sky, light and mood!
excellent shot you captured the clouds verry nice, what a view
I realy like the image, but will note that what Kort AKA: TwoPynts says about being to sharp is actually not sharpness but the actual conversion to B&W in 'Channel Mixer' and/or 'Levels' setting being out of range. This is noted on the mountain range and especially the buildings and power line towers. Since we spoke via the phone and I know this is also a software issue, I would like to suggest that once you hve Elements or PS, please revisit this image as it is a keeper and should have another look at. Still it deserves a VOTE . Take care my friend.
how awesome the clouds over the tiny horizon... the strangeness addressed by egmont :]
Just impressive !
is the transmission tower a new one? It seems odd that there is only one, and are the lights at the bottom, town lights. So many questions and no answers. what is a person to do, try to catch the answers in the wind? not another question? I did it again, dang it I will shut up and vote
The transmission tower is not new but is larger and taller than others around the country as the SW USA has mucho space - the distance is great from the camera to the tower so the power lines were not resolved - there are more towers out of view and the objects at the bottom are a housing development. :-) Wouldn't want to live there myself but the houses are cheaper because of the power lines.
mmmmmm melts into the composition .nose pressed against the screen looking at the little houses. love the reflecting light... mmmmm those clouds wittnessing the view beneath..cloud have so much energy..and works well against the telegraph pole.. feels the electric energy... wowwwwwwww... hair raising beauty.,.. vote:)
