Tornado, C&C Solicited

Not my usual thing but I wondered what you guys would think of this image in a purely abstract/art kind of way. C&C most welcome

When it comes to abstracty arty types I am not very good TBH, however, Like the green and the slight blurring giving an energy to the shot, slightly off level which again helps the image, but the top left white area is a distraction, the steam to the right is fine, it`s a pity it does not extend to the left. Perhaps try cropping off the top 5mm? so the top is in line with the top of the engine. Apart from that I quite like it.

Thanks Dave, agreed about the top left, it was a very overcast day with no detail in the sky to speak of. Maybe I could layer something in or burn it in a little. Like I say not really my style this, I just thought I would experinment a little.

I think if your intention is an abstract image, a closer crop with a bit more movement blur, which you can add in Photoshop, would be beneficial I think.

Your choice of ISO 3200 has meant you've got a fair bit of noise in the darker areas. Easily reduced or removed with software though.

For me, the white space/steam at the top is somewhat detracting from the remainder of the image.
