    Cloud City.

    Someone asked if this was cloud city. I wish. its just dumb old Superior, Colorado.

    so it was f/2.8 30 seconds and a pulse of the off camera flash to illuminate the wheat. C&C greatly appreciated.

    Very interesting composition. Frankly I would rather see another tint than the green yellow but that's me.

    afdlips,

    Really like the illumination of the foreground. This would be an entirely different picture without that feature.

    I agree with the others on the foreground illumination. I'm going to have to give that a try.

    I agree...The foreground effect makes this pop. Nice experiment.

    Don't you just love it when it comes out right. I think you did a great job of using the lens, Flash, background and forground. Thanks for sharing.
