Great shot. Lovely composition and toning. The only thing that is distracting me is that one long thin grass stem in the middle foreground. What happened to the rest of the 6x6?

I don't know how I missed that weed Bret, now when I look at this shot that's what I see first. Yeah I chopped a little off the top & bottom. Thanks for the critique.

I like this for the challege it presents to the viewer. The dark tonalities and subtle compositional intersections woven into the strong texture require more than the usual quick glance to appreciate. I'm sure it is even more striking as a print on paper.

"..subtle compositional intersections woven into the strong texture.."

 

Exactly - now why couldn't I write that.

I was thinking those very thoughts. Mike C just beat me to it. Beautiful scene, beautifully rendered.
