i used the channel mixer and set it at red:100 blue: 0 green: 0. it gives the picture similar properties as if it were shot through a red filter

Speaks well of photography. It doesn't look real. The shot is almost perfect.

I absolutely love this shot!! The only thing i would change is that I would crop that bright circle of light on the far right of the image... it's a bit distracting.
Great work Alex!

Tis quite spooky, it looks slightly warped, like the houses are going to be consumed. I like the lighting on the clouds and the darkness of the ground.

Very nice - I like the black and white very much! But holy geez does that sky ever look looming and destructive! I have to say though the house is rocking awesome too. I love how crisp and clean it turned out against the sky.
