An exceptional sky ! The wee figure gives it a tremendous sense of scale, making this a bit special.

what a nice unity in your shot.
the BW. is the best choice for this shot.
And your Boxlike compo is so nice.

All the best,

Great shot Jim, and those clouds could be used in so many other images.

A wonderful juxtaposition of scale - what majestic clouds. The high contrast of the light and shadows gives great modelling to the form of the clouds and earth.
