Small stream near the top of Sonora Pass, Sierra Nevadas

I'm trying to make images that have appeal in the nature/art

category, I'm looking for general comments and comments on

composition, etc.

Greg, this pic has good composition, but the good exposure actually takes away from the scenery. To really appreciate this pic I had to turn up the contrast almost to the max and the brightness thereabouts. Then you see beautiful colors backgrounded by darker shadows, and the purple stalks pop out as well.

Really good job anticipating that water blur in the near foreground, I think that really adds to the overall composition of the photo.

Well I also think that you could do something better with exposure. Maybe even using a reflector on the flowers in front would help pop something out. Also you might want to try using velvia for prints like these.

The photo is a nice example of diagonal composition with a lots of details in all parts of the image. I like the soft mood that is created by the blured water flow and rounded rocks. The flowers in the foreground balance a small waterfall just right. Colors are pleasant and so is the lighting. Good job, Greg.

I feel an urge to shift a bit to the left and back up somewhat, then see if it makes composition tighter. I feel there is a bit too much free and uninteresting space (left rock on the bacground, too much of water surface). Nice shot. No thanks, I don't have space on my office walls.

 

Would I hang it on the wall?? Well, I'd put it on my bureau, but not quite on the wall, for about the same reasons as posted above.

Yes I would,it's a very peacefull picture.Well done. so long,Gejza

Greg - Good job with exposure and depth of field focusing. You caught some good light for this scene.

How cute..... Nice shot.
