The Badlands - South Dakota-3

I like your other ones better, this one doesn't work for me. The foreground is uninteresting and takes up a lot of the picture, the background looks very interesting but is tiny and lost in the picture. Regards, erik

Steve, South Dakota 2 is my favorite of the ones on PN.  There's something about the highly saturated greens and popping colors that doesn't go with this dry, arid  landscape.  Although these images are sharp, to me they look t surreal.  I appreciate seeing what you have done here, as it's a new take on the badlands for me - they don't look too bad, eh?  

Erik and Larry,

I really appreciate both your comments. As a newcomer to photography I really need good cogent criticism and both you gentlemen have provided it.

Erik - In retrospect I probably should taken the photo from ON TOP of the hill in the foreground.   Regards - Steve
