Colors of History

A more intimate look at the Painted Hills area than most of my work

from here. It's hard to get scale from this image unless you have been

here. The distance is about 1/3 of a mile and the background hill

rises a 100+ feet.

Well done, the colors are very true and the texture nicely presented.  I have been at this place many times and spent many hours with my camera trying to get the perfect shot. I have a few images in my portfolio. I hope that you enjoyed the experience as much as I have.

Warm regards, Pamela

You found a great composition.  The hill fanning out in the foreground and the series of gullies and ridges in the background are striking.

Amazing place, amazing image. A most striking composition, elegant and powerful. Thank you very much for sharing. Congratulations.

This is a place I know only from photographs -- it's on my list -- and this is one of the finest I've seen. You have a superb eye and the technical skill to capture what you see.

Beautiful abstract.  Looks like the lighting might have been a little flat, maybe some added contrast?

Adrian,

This looks truly amazing! beautiful composition and colours. Thanks for sharing it and very best wishes.

Thanks folks for the feedback. I really searched visually for a strong composition. Harry, I agree that it might need a slight bump in contrast. I was trying to balance it out without over doing it.

The colours, the lines and the layers all make up to make this landscape truly wonderful and stunning.
