A very good shot Dave. Good colours. A fine comp. Overall, very good. I would probably have prefered a tiny bit more space at the right. But thats nitpicking. Good luck with your bookproject. MaritimTim. 2008/5/28 David Savage <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > G'day All, > > I'm slowly making my way throug

I like this one a lot. I might have preferred it a bit more to the right as Brian says, but Im not sure. In any case, the green fields and dramatic sky are great. No split ND filter, I assume. You obviously achieved an exposure that allowed you to balance the elements correctly. Excellent. Paul

Dave, Evocative view of the prairie. I like the fence starting in the lower left corner, and the tiny buildings on the horizon. Lots greener than OZ. Regards, Bob S. On Wed, May 28, 2008 at 5:02 PM, Brian Walters <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Dave > > Nice perspective although I would liked to

Hi Dave Nice perspective although I would liked to have seen more fence posts. Perhaps a shooting position a bit further to the right? Cheers Brian ++ Brian Walters Western Sydney, Australia http://members.westnet.com.au/brianwal/SL/ On Wed, 28 May 2008 22

Overall I like the concept, but I think the OOF lines of the barbed wire in the foreground-lower portion of the frame are a bit too heavy and distracting. They draw my eye downwards and off the image. Creating a vignette combining blur and more darkening of that area, and maybe cropping a l
