October Twilight

Shot last Fall during an approaching storm that brought the first

snowfall to this part of the Colorado high country.

Thanks for looking at this one.

Very nicely done Brian. I really like the tones and contrast between the gray trunks and the yellow trees. Nice textures, leading lines and composition. Regards - michel

Hi, Brian,

Nice compo, and nice contrast made by those yellow trees. Well done!

Kind regards,

Ramon.

Excellent textures in the foreground,the overall composition and lighting is superb

Superb! Bravo.

Very nice work. Excellent composition and color , very well done.

Thanks everybody for your impressions.

Nice perspective, the colour of the sky is so beautiful.

very good capture and lovely colors well done 

Eye-catching perspective, great composition, beautiful image.

Brian - I really like the composition and mix of tones in thyis one.  Thnaks for leaving the shadows as shadows! So often images are adjusted to bring out every pixel, and just starts looking odd.  Great mood here.  I would be interested to know your technique for bringing out the luminosity of the aspen? as it doesn't look like there is much backlighting in other parts of the image where I might expect it.  Great sky and just enough of it.  Looks magical.

Cheers, Harry

Thanks again guys,

Harry, thanks for your impressions. Tried not to go to crazy with the saturation on this image. The sky was that intense and really didn't need much work. Quite stunning really. The fall Aspens were also at full peak, but I did make a layer mask and gave them a shot of intensity. Maybe just a little to much. I'll probably tone those down for the print.

Thanks again for your impressions everyone

Brian

Well composed dynamic image.  I like that you've not tried to overly brighten the foreground; the lighting seems perfect to me.

Nicely done.
