Foreboding Skies

The skies of the west coast of Tasmania can sometimes have a foreboding feel to them.  The darkness seems to penetrate everything.  Dullness takes over giving a broody light for eerie photographs.  Clouds dance across the skies, bumping, colliding, dissipating, reforming and eventually dumping their loads.  These types of days produce a sombre mood.

 All shots taken with a Pentax K20D and Sigma 24-70 DG EX.
F9.5, ISO 100, 1/150s, 60mm.


F11, ISO 100, 1/60s, 24mm.


F5.6, ISO 100, 1/45s, 70mm.
