Artist's Comments

Yesterday i was out photographing and saw this long and thin cloud which looked like a wet shirt being wringed out of water. As strange as that was there's more to it, the cloud was rotating around it's own axel and twisting even more and more. It's funny how nature acts sometimes, i've never seen anything like that before =)
Hope ya like it! :slow:

It looks so surreal :) and something I have never seen before. I like how the picture forms layers like that, the sea, the rain and the cloud. Really well done my mate. btw those islands look a little bit like warships -- at least to me. ;)

Gorgeous colors, and what a scene to see!! Im jealous to say the least! :O

I have to agree with AOL and say the islands look like a fleet of ships post-fire fight or something to that degree, to me. Very cool!

Great shot, it looks completely unreal. The colors and lighting add to that impression. I recently saw a cloud that looked just like a upside-down UFO, it was equally weird but not nearly as beautiful. Had you cropped the sea out I'd refuse to believe this is even a photo.

Johan on! :omg: En ole itekkään koskaan nähny mitään tuollaista, jo sen takia tämä on jo mahtava. Mutta asettelu ja värit on hyvät kanssa.

Wow, that looks so strange and amazing. The shot doesn't even look real. Great capture
