    Re: The Yellowstone River

    Really good. The growth on the water nearest is very effective and the overall framing is great. Colours are good but it all seems a little dark, especially the trees on the right which have gone to black. A little selective levels might bring them back.
    Great landscape in my books.

    Nice, I would love to see this spot in Person. You did a great job displaying it.

    No question that if you enlarge that shot to about 20" wide the foreground will look pretty neat.

    As for the Top Fuel Dragster I'm thinking no, it calls for a Cigarette Racer what with the water and all.....
    No, I DON'T need that.

    I like it as is. I think the beautifully blue skies and great hues and patterns in the foreground ties this shot together really well. The bottom part is almost like an old painting by forgot the artist, the guy that painted the screem, van gogh? It has the similar brush strokey feeling to it.

    Yeah, I'd also like to be in that same spot

    Van Gogh's 'Stary Night' came to mind. I don't think VG did Scream, although a similar style.
