"Stark" Green River Lakes, WY

My friend and I were taken in by a man who lived in a Tee-Pee because

we were stranded without a vehicle 50 miles from anywhere. On this

morning, as I attempted to exit the Tee-Pee, the flap was frozen

shut. It took a few whacks with some firewood to dislodge the Cowhide

door, only to step into a winter wonderland. Your comments are

appreciated. Thanks in advance!!!

Perfect mood

Hi Mark

Your shot is great first of all because of the graphic details: Two balancing vertical figures against the horizon have created emphasis not only through contrast but also through position. The entry point into the frame is through the small stones at the bottom of the frame. They are grouped together inducing unity

which causes continuation toward the tree on the right and climbing up to the brightest point in the frame. The lines in the clouds direct the eyes to the mountain outline and back to the tree on the left. The interconnection of elements ensure unintrrupted optical movement. The analoguos color scheme here is tranqulizing. The color continuity is great too. It has created a cold atmosphere

. I also like the depth created by the foreground tree and stones, the texture in the midground and the mountain in the distance. Very eye-catching. Keep up the good work. Cheers.
