Tentative

Gallery: LandscapePosted January 25, 2013194 views8 comments

I'm a little hesitant to post this as I've been working off my laptop and am not sure I can trust the monitors colors, but this is pretty much right out of the camera. Apparently, there is a perpetual haze in Arizona and the rising sun catches it with wonderful vibrancy. any comments and suggestions, especially in regards to color, will be appreciated. Thanks for stopping to look

Hi Nancy, the color has a natural look, not over done at all, pretty little scene, with very nice light. Well done.

As regards color it has a wonderful glow which i like.

I often have difficulty determining which gallery to post images and wonder how you decided to post this in"landscape"

The image has an appealing color with a nice soft glow. I find myself wanting a little more detail in the bfg area. Nice shot though. Chet

Very nice, Nancy. I like this quite a lot. The color looks good to me. I like how you have used the dark shadows in the lower part of the image as it provides a nice counterpoint and further enhances the light on the cactus and directs my attention there. My eyes then wander to the background glow in the sky which compliments the glow on the cactus nicely. I also like the perspective and how you have made the cactus stand out against that sky.

Cool, colors look good to me. You missed one spot in the extreme ulhc

As for the gallery, it probably is better suited for flora, although flora tends to get more macro type shots for whatever reason (momentum probably) I think it fits in ok with this gallery too though, cause I think the surrounding landscape is part of the story here. In fact, I could see it having a bit more space on the sides. But I think it's pretty nice overall!

Nice simple comp, and really nice light. Could maybe see lightening the dark foreground a bit, but overall I like this.

Nancy, This is pretty cool looking! I like the colors and the glowing light really adds a nice feel to this. I think it fits fine in this gallery and like Stan could actually see a bit more room on the sides showing a little more of the landscape.
