Thank you for your feedback Kit and Chad... I did do some work closer up, however, with water lily's it is difficult with a lensbaby (essentially a 50mm lens) to get close! None the less I liked this composition as I felt it framed the sharp subject... I guess one could argue that it is material that is not needed or even necessary but I'm not convinced... My eye does not spend much time at the top but rather with the color and sharp area... so for me the extra information acts as a background a pallette if you will for the subject.. None the less I appreciate your perspective! Thanks!

As shot with the fun Lensbaby.

I like this scene a lot! Almost monochromatic in its feel. The three people add just the right feel for perspective. Crisp and nicely done.

This was shot on the road back from the Bristlecone Pine forest in Ca. As there was just to

much empty sky I decided to crop it off. It was a pretty amazing scene to behold. Not sure

I've captured the essence of it or not.

Thank you Ric and Dave. I always hate to decide myself if something is "fine art"... I felt like this might fit the category but I'll leave that up to the viewers..

This is a shot of reeds in water panned up and down over about 1 second then cropped in PS.

Just terrific! I guess if I had one little itsy bitsy nit it would be the little hole on the right just above the column... my eye seems to want to go there to much... again NOT a big deal..

Again simplicity is what makes this one so good. Simple elements and great light! Nice composition too.

A very nice image here David. I too like the soft light and the pastel sky is nice with this one. A simple yet strong composition.

Was just there a few weeks ago. A nice portrait of a lovely OLD tree. An amazing place! If you are interested you might check out a recent post of mine which is an XPan (Panoramic) detail shot from that very area.

As an XPan shooter myself I am always drawn to the format when I see one. This is a very strong image and very well done. Some might say it's cut in half but the tree placement it makes that a non-issue. Nice!

Thank you Deb... I love that your name is Cloud! :)

Mono Lake in California at sunrise. This is an HDR image using three exposures and

Photomatix software to process.

I'm partial to the B&W...

A very nice piece. I like the crisp detail and stormy sky which make this one sing! Great!

Great warm light wonderful composition, nicely seen. Great!

I think I like this one. Good job of using teh posts as a leading line right up to the tower. Nice!

I have got to get to this place! A terrific image that not only shows the beauty of the landscape but the scope and scale of the area as well. Nicely done Dave!

The is as shot with the Hasselblad XPan and a 90mm lens. It is a panoramic camera capable

of getting to within 1.5 feet of the subject. The subject is an a Bristlecone Pine that is

approximately 3,000 years old. An amazing place.

I love images like this. Dynamic color and keeping it simple. A very nice abstract Carlos.

Converted to B&W in PS. Best viewed larger.

HELLO! Hanna this is simply wonderful! A real big time winner! Love it, love it, love it!.

Sorry but it looks like a polarizer was over used for the blue sky. WAY to dark blue for my taste. Other than that its a nice image of the wave.

Your work gets better and better... love this even with the bright white... Normally I don't like "hot" spots but for some reason this one works. I love the trumpet player image too. Good stuff Ellen.

Well look at you! Great idea with this shot Kelly! Glad you found me on this site and that you found the site. It is a fun place to hang. I hope you are feeling better! Be well and hope to see you soon.
