    Some of the old south

    I took this photo this morning. See what you think. It did loose a lot when I re sized it but it still looks pretty good to me, Jeff

    Re: Some of the old south

    I like it too.

    I personally am a vignette fiend, and I would definitely like to see this one with some vignetting, albeit slight. I'm slightly bothered by the paper-white hot sky in the upper left, and the flare it puts on the tree.

    I dont think you shot it too loose, or do you mean this is a crop?

    Re: Some of the old south

    I'd like to see it without the tilt to the right, that's all.
    You could shave from the top to remove the burnt out sky on the left and the lens reflections over the trunk, but that's minor.
    Don't lose the mail box on the left, that's a nice touch.

    Re: Some of the old south

    I actually posted the wrong shot. This is the shot I meant to post. The first on was hand held at too slow a shutter speed and it also had other problems so I went back and re took the picture using my tripod, Jeff

    Re: Some of the old south

    The repost addresses the issues mentioned only thing I'd like to see is the letter box lightened a bit because as Paul sais its a nice touch.

    Isn't it a cool thing in nature that the colours never seem to clash...

    I have no issues with you editing my photos

    Re: Some of the old south

    I made a few adjustments including lightening up the mail box. Better or not? Jeff

    Re: Some of the old south

    I like the warmth in this last one and the "pop" added to the mailbox. Whole thing still seems to lean about a degree to the right but I understand you don't have much room at the lower left as it is.

    Thanks for taking a look and leaving a comment. This is a .5 degree adjustment to the left. I tried a full degree and it just looked too much. See what you think, Jeff
