    Love the foreground and color scheme

    Great angle of the engineering building that not everyone usually takes pictures of. Colors really add a spooky feel. The colors on the cloud being different from everything is nice too. I love the single cloud just perfectly sitting above the building.

    Good image, I like the color contrast between the yellow of the lights and the blue and purple of the sky and clouds. I would maybe consider cropping out the grass so that you only see the engineering center and the sky.

    The colors in this image really pop and provide an alien feeling to both the cloud form and the engineering center. I like how you chose to center the image on the cloud as it gives it a feeling of weight despite its relative size.

    I really enjoy the green you added to this image. The overall scenery is quite nice, and really enhances the full image.

    The color compositions is very cool. I like that the cloud is in the center and the busy background doesn’t really distract from the cloud.

    The pink hue of the cloud is really eerie with the darker tones and the yellow lights, the overall composition is really cool.

    What kind of stratification do you think is happening in the atmosphere that allowed the lenticular cloud to form below the more ubiquitous high level clouds?

    Cool cloud. I like the framing above the engineering center. The blur on the people walking is a little strange, but I’m not sure if it’s good or bad. The image looks a bit blurry and grainy.

    Incredible image, love the contrast between the lone cloud and engineering building, also the cloud looks great. Hope you had your camera at that time.

    Really beautiful shot of the engineering center. Takes away from the cloud though.

    Love the colors, they’re fantastic. I like the little bit of blur happening in the bottom left. I like the branches coming into the frame from the top.

    Nice color in the cloud, also nice image overall. Good composition and colors. It was taken with a cell phone which looses some image quality, but it looks ok.

    The color distinction is a lot more apparent than I expected it to be. Very nice effect and isolation of the fuzzy looking cloud

    I really like the highlights of the engineering center. The single cloud really pops as well.

    Cool cloud, I like how it’s framed by the engineering tower. What did you do to the colors in the photo? I like how the cloud is pink against the blue background…it’s pretty weird looking, but I like it.

    Cool cloud formation and I like the contrast with the warmth of the interior lights.

    I really like this image. The cloud is really nice but I really like the colors of the EC and how you captured those.

    I love the shade of pink. Is there a way to focus on the cloud more?

    I really like the aesthetic of this image. the contrast between bright campus and the dark sky adds a nice effect.
