This looks like a painting with so many textures and shadows. Really unusual.

Great sky picture and even the moon shares his appearance with us ... If Percy wrote about it, it must be romantic.
Great picture and composition !

Those 'smoky' clouds give the photo a twist. How very grimly enchanting.
