Aside from how brilliant you compose your shots and the careful shading of b/w, I am most impressed with how you use the sky. They always seem to be the perfect backdrop to the primary subject of your photos.
This shot is great!

P.S. how does one post the personal photo of themselves with a response? I have tried to edit my "signature" but seem to be missing something.

Thanks again CF!
I don't get to shoot landscape very oftenly and I am usually faced to boring skies when I do so. Thus, I was in heaven during this shot as I experienced some serious skies!
You need to edit the "avatar" in the control pannel of your account. That's the picture that will go with your responses.
This makes me think of "The Wizard of Oz." Like the tornado came though and threw the lobster cages everywhere. But anyway this is a beautiful shot! I'm new some I'm learning what everyone's photography is like. When I saw your dead tree pic I was a little skeptical but you've got a lot of great photos.
Seb - Decent, but I think it somehow lacks tonal quality in the foreground. The grass etc all seems surreal, almost like it's borderline IR film. Hard to explain here, but the shot just seems unnatural to me.
Just another suggestion that you watch the spliting of the photo into two equal pieces like you have here... that can create a lot of tension in a photo. It can work if there's an object that breaks up the split, and the traps sort of do a little. But they're just a bit too small to do it effectively, and the shot just seems to be split in half to me I guess I'm easily confused.

Thanks all. The look mostly comes from dodging. That's actually the first time that I dodge a picture in this series. It does look different, perhaps I pushed the effect too far.
Maybe I'm strange but I love this photo for all of the reasons GB said needed fixing.
:arf:
Devin - Yeah, it does have a magical feeling somehow. Spliting the frame in two can have a dramatic effect btw.. Maybe the conflict is appealing.

AWESOME...the composition is wonderful! I tend to lean towards a bit more comtrast...but the textures are gorgeous as well... you can almost feel a little breeze...really one of your best in my opinion...
"I was not trying to be shocking, or to be a pioneer.
I wasn't trying to change society, or to be ahead of my time.
I didn't think of myself as liberated, and I don't believe that I did anything important.
I was just myself. I didn't know any other way to be, or any other way to live.".
