Hi Morkel,
Very dynamic sky, although I might have framed it so there was only one tree if thet were possible. I would also not have the bright patch in the sky quite so bright as i feel it draws the eye a bit. I see an alternative crop with about an inch of the top and bottom of the image. Are you saying there are different D800's for different regions?? Pretty Well done though for a handheld from a vehicle..

Tnx Don, will explore that crop.
I was referring to the dynamic range of the D800 sensor, the amount of detail and contrasting luminosity it can capture dark to light in a single shot without having to bracket exposures...

This reminds me of another image I saw somewhere else with a single tree in monochrome rendition. The drama in the sky is so good, Morkel and I actually like the crop here. Very balanced for my taste.

thanks Adhika
the tree on the left in the BG is the same tree as in my previous mono shot :)

Very nicely done Morkel, the square crop works well with this comp and you always do a good job processing these images without getting that washed out shadow tones most people end up with when they pull the shadows in post.

Very interesting image Morkel. I partially agree with Don regarding the crop from the bottom and from he top. As for the composition i like both trees rendered in different sizes!

Terrific dynamic range indeed. I rather like the second tree, and like the crop as presented in the OP.
