Grove of the Sun

Thanks for commenting. I'd be happy to discuss.

Nicely balanced, clean composition. My only criticism would be regarding the strong distortion at the lower corners. I know this is normal with ultrawide lenses, but IMO it hurts the image. I'd be curious to see what others think as well.

I think the distortion is a minor annoyance. I think that the colorful foliage should be a little brighter. Its an awesome element and shold be showcased more, especially since the sun is still high enough on the horizon to be able to illuminate this more...

 

welcome back btw...

Excellent eye to see this Marc. How are you controlling the sun burst from over powering in this image? Any time I have tried something like this I wind up with a blown out, over exposed flare.

Exellent combination of color and tones revealing a very keen eye to see this - even it seems a bit 'unreal'.

Beautiful image !
