    Re: Palisades Sunset

    I like the color a lot.

    Personal opinion: I wish the tree top didn't touch the horizon and that its silhouette was darker.
    Keep Shooting!

    After I took this one, I moved the camera to get the shape of the tree to better match the hills. Would have been nice, but I blew the composition by adding more sky and losing the bottom. Seemed like the right call at the time.

    Re: Palisades Sunset

    I like where you put the skyline in this image, when did you stop always putting it in the center of the frame?!?

    BTW the image as a whole looks a little dark (on my monitor crummy monitor at work) with not quite enough detail/contrast in the foreground. How does it look printed?
    No, I DON'T need that.

    I haven't printed it yet. On my monitor it's just light enough that you can see the outlines of the house's roof and some distant hills and trees.
