Re: Backlite
I like how the composition fits. Colors are excellent.. i'd clone out those wires to the right, but good in my book. Use Nevets wide angle lens?

Re: Backlite
I dunno but that's a great shot Mike. The sky is dramatic. It would be even more picture perfect without the wires on the right though for your own collection.

Re: Backlite
I shot that one last year with Tyler. I used my 18-55 lens that comes with the canon. Those skys were the front edge to a rarity in the UP, a tornadic storm system that passed a few hours later. I figured the angle and the sky would have over looked the fact that the sun was in the wrong spot.

Re: Backlite
The sky is great, so why include all that boring ground in the composition? May have been a mis-click reason. It's a bad crop in my book.

Re: Backlite
I think I'd try some cropping too. Get rid of some of the foreground and the shrubbery on the left. I think the green distracts from the power of the blue and white in the sky. The sky is quite dramatic so I'd keep all that. I don't find the sun angle to be a problem at all. I don't even mind the wires.
