A bucolic scene that gives me something to look forward to as the winter rains have just begun here in the Pacific Northwest. Beautiful color and light. The hand of man and the feet of cows...

A very nice farmscape, Mark! A warm pleasing atmosphere and lots to look at both in front and in back.

Beautiful country, and I love the flow of the lines int his image, Mark. The road does a great job of leading to all those nice slanted lines.

Bucolic! I like the layering leading up to the snowy peaks.

The road at the bottom, winding among the cows, leads almost to the upper two thirds of the image, and from there on up, the image is layered in different kinds of terrains, from the trees to the grassy hills and up to the snow-covered mountains. Nice! I like the way the sort of golden color of the one cow in almost the center of the picture makes that cow stand out.

Really nice landscape! In fact, so nice, that you could even crop it several different ways and get completely different scenes...For example, you could level the hills and crop the bottom scene out for a cool mountain pano. Plus, you could crop off the mountains at the treeline tops and have a great little farm scene.
Very nice!

Wonderful combination of agriculture and wilderness, illustrating the kind of American West that I imagined watching cowboy movies as a kid, with the ranch backed up by snow-capped peaks. This is also a good lesson in the value of shooting when the Sun is low,

The beauty and genius of a work of art may be reconceived, though its first material expression be destroyed; a vanished harmony may yet again inspire the composer; but when the last individual of a race of living beings breathes no more, another heaven and another earth must pass before such a one can be again. William Beebe, 1906 |
