storm coming

@Dipti Kachru: took me a long time to figure out what strakness meant. thank god for Firefox auto correct :D and thank you for your comment, my girlfriend was just making fun of me for not knowing English. hehe

again, thanks for the comment, i'm running out of nice photos to post... :( (this is a result of that...).

@SPunkt: i dunno, to be honest they look a bit washed out to me.. i mean i tried to push those damned clouds and the red but i really couldn't get anything worth a damn in my view.

firstly i want to extend a huge thanks to you for taking the time to comment this with a suggestion. i'm really trying to imagine it myself but lemme just look at it for a second. ah, i see the diagonal idea, it sounds interesting, and also maybe a vertical framing wou;d've worked. hmm, thanks again for the advice. and the cropping comes naturally with the framing.

@zoloper: hehe, thank you my padawan.

yup, manual full flash, but exposure is pretty much the same as non-flash (and other settings of course) except for the ominous glowing circle. but i liked it. so i chose this one.

i wouldn't go so far as to say frightening but it aims to make a point. as in the storm coming towards this km zero of democracy. hehe, thought you'd see it :P

@{H} creatives: thanks for this comment as well :)

i don'[t like the way i dodged that red but if you like it then hey it must be ok.

i personally rather feel the clouds lack details but again if you like it i'm pleased :)

as for the composition there was a little bit of cropping in place but yeah this is mainly the way i shot it.

@Evie: thanks evie :)
