This photo was taken in the Dolomites. As the sun was setting magnificent mammatus clouds formed. It was difficult to capture the sheer scale of the clouds but I made my best attempt. In addition, mist began clinging to the tops of the trees really adding to the spectacular landscape! The other photo was taken during sunrise at a separate location. Let me know what you think!
The second has the most appeal to me however i would like to see it in color out of curiosity.
Here is a quick edit of what color would look like
doing some editing techniques to this could make it epic have you watched any of this guys stuff you should take a look

you could do something like this
Purple Rain approaching, Joseph?
yeah why not
Nice images. I checked your website; your portfolio is great, lots of unique work.
Thanks! I appreciate the feedback 😊
I do like the second one, Matthew. And I like the mono. I might have brought up the shadow level in the rock a bit if it didn't kill the drama, because the textures are so beautiful, but I do really like your image - its composition, amount of cloud blur, and the post-processing.
The first would be better for me if it didn't have such overpoweringly strong diagonals, in the two tree-covered ridges. These don't harmonise with the mountain & sky part, which appeals. I don't know that there's much you could do about this. I'd wonder about panning right, or zooming in on the mountains & sky alone, although neither might have worked. You were there, & I wasn't!
Your feedback is excellent, thank you very much! Yea the first one is tricky because the right side has the star of a mountain that I cropped because it looked like it didn't belong.
