Image took close to the Playa de Famara, looking north to the near islands of Graciosa and Montana Clara.

As the yesterday image also that one can be used for a political view of Italian Election.
After one night we know that less than 25.000 people (on a total of more than 52.000.000) were decisives for the House of the Parliament.
The Senato will be decided by the votes of the Italian Emigrates.
This is the first time that they vote, 'cause the largest part of them are never went in Italy, have only 1 grandfather Italian (very often a grand-grandfather!), and very few of them are able to talk some words in Italian!
So, they will be decisive in the next few hours!

At this moment we have the House of Parliament won by the Left wing and the Senate by the Right wing.

The sky in the image is similar to the one over Italy...the storm is ended or is arriving?

You've used this unusual sky to create a very good composition, Paolo. The light and colours in this are quite impressive. Equally impressive is how you've managed to relate this to the Italian election! Cheers . . . David

Ciao Paolo,
anche da noi in H si é votato domenica scorsa.Ci sará bisogno di una seconda tornata per decidere se il centro-sx rimarrá al governo o vince Forza Ungheria. A parte tutto comunque le Tue nuvole sono belle e sembrano passeggere mentre il futuro a breve-medio termine almeno in I,sembra difficile in ogni caso.

Hi Paolo,
looks real threatning. While everything's still blue.
Good colours and composition,
Thanks and regards, Gerrit

Bad or good, a beautiful cloud at the right place, in an excellent compo with superb colors (esp. on bottom), well done, Daniel
ps - you mean that guys like Al Pacino and Lionel Messi can vote in your elections? Funny.

Paolo bonjour - tu es vraiment le master de ces paysages - le nuage sous forme de tornade est absolument fantastique -
très belles couleurs comme d'habitude
Merci et bonne journée
Gaby

Hi Paolo,
Wonderful view, I like the colors and mountains composition. Well done,

Guter Schuß. Gesichtspunkt, Tiefe von fangen, Farben auf und gestaltend seien Sie sehr gut. TFS. Glückwünsche...

Hello Paolo
Beautiful landscape, it looks arid and it contrast well with the blueish tones in the sky
really well done
Regards
Daniel

Paolo, the cloud adds a lot of perspective to the image. My concern with this one is the on the foreground you have no shadows which makes the image appears flat. Great comp anyway. Thanks for sharing!

Bel posto Paolo, bella anche la composizione e nonostante lo scan anche i colori, complimenti.
Ciao
Vinicio

What a contrast in the sky! Despite that the light is good on the scene and the colours are wonderful.
Your election is getting air-time over here too. The storm clouds are certainly gathering.
Good luck
Kath

I'm not having a political opinion about Italia. I only have a wish that the new ruler be more kind to Slovenia :)) I'll be kind to this photo, which is atractive in many ways, but similary is having some problems with the quality.
I have to say I'm feeling really good watching this image and I have no explanation why. Sorry, I wish I could but I don't have.
Same goes to Italian elections :))

Aleks

What a clouds, Paolo!
Very ncie shot with good composition, Very nice scene and interesting spot.
Tanks for posting.
Regards, Amir

It may be a bad sky, but you managed to take a nice picture of it. Amnd the weather over all does not look so bad ;-)
Beautiful capture, Paolo, I love the colors.

We had temperatures of 20 degrees in Rome, cooler in the morning and the end of the afternoon, but it was lovely!
Next time Italy should be Milano, it's high on my wishlist....

Hello Paolo!
Great colors, light and shot. Excellent POV and composition. Well done!
TFS;-)
regards

Hi Paolo,
A well composed view of this great area. The colourful hues of both water and land really mesmerize. I also like the DOF, as one can see far into the distance. Clear, crisp and artistically represented. A fine note to accompany.

Hey Paolo,

what does it take to shoot these kinds of great landscapes? I dont have it in me. I guess you grew up around nature, you must understand it. Im a city boy, born and raised. I suppose thats why I dont get it.

Hi Paolo,
I came back again. This is a great composition with lovely colors. Excellent enquadrement and light. I also like the details.
TFS and have a great day,
Aires

Hi Paolo,
What an amazing cloud formation, and he is right drifting in the whole scene.
Very impressive..!!!
The blue tone in combination with the foreground is very well chosen.
Great work..!!
Regards, Henk

Ciao caro Paolo,
I hope you are happy with the results of the elections... I also have a good friend here in Canada who has her Italian passport... needless to say, she didn't vote for B. Let him write songs! :-)
This shot is wonderful, almost as if it were from a sci-fi movie, the clouds representing the vapour trail of the spaceship that has just passed by.
Beautiful colours.
In fact, all in all, am not threatened... I wish I were in Canary Islands, free of concerns...:-)
Ciao, have a great day
