Naturescapes and man-made structures create amazing formations from otherwise open sky compositions. From brick archways, to sharp pine trees, to elaborate winter branches, the use of shadow versus clouds brings out the elegance of sky viewing.
The first photo presents an interesting architectural element that sets up the sky composition through the use of a brick archway that leads to a bright afternoon sky with a few fluffy clouds and a distant water tower.
The second photo provides a more dramatic look at the sky through the dark shadow of a pine tree that crosses the heavily cloudy sky with sunbeams peeking through.
In the third photo, the branches of a tree cross the vast sky composition along with a street lamp.
