Dramatic landscapes

This is a stunningly colourful and dramatic landscape that really pulls the viewer in and captured our attention quickly. The photographer has skillfully timed the capture with a bolt of lightening that adds to the dramatic feel of the shot. The colour palette captured is lovely – the purples, blues, oranges and yellows complement each other beautifully and we really love the simplicity of the composition as a whole meaning that all of the attention is focussed on the breathtaking and powerful sky.

This image is really the true definition of a dramatic landscape. The natural formation of the mountains is utterly spine-tingling and the composition ensures that they are the central focus of the image. The soft texture captured in the clouds is stunning and contrasts beautifully against the rough texture captured in the rock. The bold splashes of green created by beams of sunlight through broken cloud really help to draw focus to the image and further emphasise the drama in the landscape.
