    Sunrise

    Geyser in YNP this fall. Pulled this one out and did some PP on it.

    Re: Sunrise

    The image you posted is a little too tall to take the whole thing in without scrolling but this is what I take on it;

    1) the horizon seems to split the image in half-rarely a good thing.
    2) without your title and text I wouldn't realize that this is a geyser going off.
    3) I like the moon in the image but it is sooooooooooooooo small
    3a) perhaps this would have been a good use for a telephoto.
    4) I like the subtle sky colors
    5) I like the foreground
    No, I DON'T need that.

    I agree, nice colours in the sky, but there is no way I see a moon in there and I have been searching for a while.
    My best suggestion would be to crop out about half the sky and then maybe up the contrast to bring out the foreground.

    Moon, what moon? I'm with Shooter on this one. It's all a little too much in the middle for me. S

    Re: Sunrise

    It's kind of like where's Waldo finding the moon...

    Since it is a bit big for the screen after i scroll down and cut out some of the sky it looks a little more apealing making the foregroud more of the highlight by not having the horizon in the middle of the screen.

    Good job.
