Hmmm! Thank you. I'm still not fully satisfied with this composition and especialy perpective wich is not perfect according to me. Anyway, I like it too and wanted to share it with my DA friends

Well, the composition is not flawless, but I think it let's the photo have its own personality if you're following me right. I also think the perspective makes this a lot more interesting, it's almost just why I like this so much - because the rules are broken!

As you said, composition is not much problem in this one and I also like to break some rules sometimes. I just wanted to accentuate more the perpective but didn't find a better angle to fit with lightning and an acceptable composition...

wonderful perspective! I find it even better than the previous shot ^^What I found impressive is the clouds in the background , they seem to run away towards the center of the pic. Really impressive...and I agree with you, himalaya is a wonderful playground
just a technical question? are you using a wide angle here?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, I'm using the Sigma 10-20 ultra wide angle lens at 10mm for this shoot. It's a really creative lens and create great perspectives. The effect on clouds comes mostly from using this lens.

wow sounds cool, I notice some more images, they are all so great! May I ask if you are a photographer full time?

I started photography in a professional way since one year now. It is mostly about travels slideshows and step by step, i'm going further.
But photography is only a part of my activities as i'm also therapist in Ayurveda.
