does anybody want to give some critique to my pictures?
I mostly work with manipulations, made in Photoshop.
My pictures can be found at my website: http://www.bull.frac.dk
Not so much a critique as just an observation. Full moon.. The stars shining behind the clouds are wrong. There should be some dispersion, but they are as sharp as those in plain view. It’s like those stars are in front of the clouds, and we know that isn’t happening. Not with any kind of optical illusions.
And the stars in plain view. Not really sure but it seems so vacant. All the stars are the same size, and seem to be the same intensity as though they’re all the same distance. Even as black as the sky is at night, it’s still flooded with pinpricks of varying intensity lights. Even more so on such a clear night.
And last would be the light from the moon itself. It looks more like the light you’d see from some headlights. The light source [moon] is top right. The light on the bridge seems to be originating from me as headlights or directly overhead. But can’t explain why it peters out directly in front of me.
The light would actually be stronger right in front of me than 100 yards down the bridge.
It looks [on the bridge] like the light source is directly over head. Guess the light is just too sharp… The light from the moon would also be dispersed no sharp edges.
But I like the image..
Here’s an idea that I’ve just recently seen. Sundown clear blue sky, white clouds. What’s so odd about that. I’ve only seen it twice but the clouds were split like one of those kitchen towels or the U.S. Flag hung sideways.

B = Sky W = Cloud
This is florida so I assume it had more to do with heat updrafts and wind currents. It can be raining 5 feet away from me and I can stay dry outside watching it.. That’s happened plenty of times.
Florida may actually be the Bermuda Triangle.
The clouds were more like rising (though just hovering) than flowing left – right, right – left
