Came across these rabbitbrush and sage in the San Luis Valley a few weeks ago. I love the mix of textures and color.

Great use of the lines again, Morris. The yellow flowers simply add to the aesthetics. Good Work

Morris, I like the soft colors and the textures too. Only suggestion I have to make is to add a soft vignette, perhaps a neutral density gradient so the eye doesn't go bounding off into the corners to get lost. Beautiful light. What time of day?

Cheers,

Carol

Morris:
Great image. Love the lines, textures and colors.

I feel like a midget with my image sandwiched between giants like yourselves, Ram, Larry, Pat and Albert.

I do too Morris but it's the light in this that makes it so appealing to me. Excellent composition, fine detail and texture and superb light. Love the mood as well. Outstanding image for my tastes.

Good eye, Morris. Many people would walk by this
without noticing its potential. I agree about the
excellent mix of colors and textures.

Thanks all

Sorry, Carol, I just saw your question. It was after the sun had just gone down, so twilight, I guess.
