High Lonesome

You have a really good feel for light John and you can certainly see it in this image. It's pretty hard to explain but it has a certain softness even though the image is tack sharp. Maybe some special light out there in the Pacific Northwest? Very nice!!

The subtle light you captured here is wonderful John, and gives this a nice sense of depth. Those cirrus clouds add a nice touch.

Gorgeous scene John, it just has a very appealing mood, along with the beautiful light and natural color. Beautifully seen and presented. Oh by the way, love the fg grasses.

John, you do such a great job of capturing fall in the PNW. The foreground grass textures are a great lead in to the contrasting blues and golds. Very nice overall.

Just a beautiful fall image. Great composition, exposure, color and light. It is a great all around image.

Gorgeous light, lots of details come together, yet I like the most the arrangement of lighted foliage and clouds.

Great light hitting this fine fall scene, John. Would love to see the larger version too. Nice work.

The viewing angle gives the trees strength within the image. Beautiful fall colors.

This is a beauty, John. I love your low POV along with the gorgeous lighting in this scene. Fantastic image.

John, This is Gorgeous!!! I love it. Composition, light, colors and subject all fantastic. Just a beautiful scene so well captured. What a beautiful print this would be. Wonderful processing for the web too!

No complaints at all here. Without the foreground grasses, this shot wouldn't be very interesting. Well done!

Really nicely done, John. I like the light on the trees. As an option, I think it would work well with a bit cropped off the bottom.

This image makes me want to ditch the computer and go for a walk. Beautiful color and soft light.

I like the strong gold / blue contrasts here and the foreground grasses anchor the scene nicely. This is a relatively simple, yet elegant, composition.

Beautiful and simple. I bet it would make a great print.

Excellent!!

This is really nice John. Love the way the trees jump out of that blue sky.

Nice, John! Perfect processing and an awesome composition.

the details in the fg grass are great. This is a beautiful depiction of "October's bright, blue weather" Very nice

Very pretty John. I love how the golden grass complements the tree color and contrasts so nicely with the sky.

Well composed, John. I like the colors and the lines and textures in the FG.
The cloudy sky is also a plus.

Beautiful picture .Great light

Ahhh...makes me want to have a glass of wine--and i don't even drink wine....

The array of warm, autumn tones set against the blue sky really makes this sing, John. I also thoroughly enjoy the details in the grasses. Gorgeous image.
Hope you are thinking about a camera that has an additional zero next the D80. The wonderful details and textures that you bring to your images deserve more mp's. Just a thought.

I really like this. The fall colors are great here, and I love the flow of grass in the fg leading towards the main cluster of vibrant trees.
