Another image from last weekend in the eastern Sierra. I struggled a bit in processing with some hot spots within the large rocks to the left of the tree and wonder how noticeable it is. Hopefully the geometry of the talus and their reflections dominates the viewer's impression of the composition.

3 commentsFor me, the strongest part of the image is the reflection. I would be interested in a crop down to just above the shadowed rock on the right. A crop really pulls me into the reflection.
I like the simplicity of this, Dave. I suggest that you burn down, or otherwise darken the talus slope, especially on the left. I really like the reflection.
Harley's crop idea is a good one, but I like the frame as-is.
This is a scene so typical of the Sierra--A lonesome lake, a scattering of pines, and a wilderness of rock.

I like the omposition. I do think the top half of the image is two bright. My only other suggestion would be to use a ND filter to really slow the shutter speed down and smooth out the water.
