Toscana II

Large looks great! Very lush greens. I think you could crop some of the sky out to draw more attention to the countryside. Still, a very nice capture! Regards, Mark

Thanks Mark.

I toyed with the crop too, but ultimately I couldn't decide what to do so I went back to the full frame. Although, looking at it now, I think you're right. The upper portion of the clouds is a bit boring and a crop would make it better.

I knew I would get ripped on ratings with this one, even though it looks so much better when viewed larger. I'm glad you commented on it.. that's what I was hoping for. :)

Thanks again.

No, no, no! No crops. This image is perfect just the way it is. A big sky belongs to Toscana's rolling hills, beautiful vinyards and small towns nestled in between lush meadows. (did you visit San Jiminiano? (splg?)

'tis a lovely image.... Bert

Bert.. yes I did visit San Gimignano (had to look up the spelling) and it was gorgeous as well. A bit hazy though that day, so I still need to go through those shots and make something presentable out of them. The whole region is just incredible.

I do love the clouds and the sky in this shot. I took this in Pienza, it was like looking out into a masterpiece painting. Pretty unreal.
