Re: Keep out

Sorry Ian, but that fencing isn't working for me, and if there was a cloud, moon, or sun in the sky would give the image a focal point. As composed the eye goes off into the blue empty sky.

ok thanks Tom

Re: Keep out

Following Toms comment, it might look better with the sky cropped so that the vegetation is in the top right corner

Snow in Spain ??????

Re: Keep out

Cheers for the feedback Stan -

I did consider cropping the sky but didn't want a letter box photo and whilst some nice fluffy clouds would have worked well it was clear blue skies, in fact it was 21 and I was down to a t-shirt at 3900 mts above sea level at that location.

Re: Keep out

Yes think this would benefit from a better sky mate. The ramshackled fence I like but the single chain leading in needs to go.

Re: Keep out

really the single chain go....I had to walk through 2ft of snow to get that angle and YES I did go A over T in the snow, thank frig for a lens hood as my camera when in with me and was 2ft deep in snow ;o) .....the sky, yes I could put some clouds in I suppose ... maybe a fail on this one ;o(

In my view the chain is too stark against the white.

Top marks for dedication though mate. Did the wife laugh?

Re: Keep out

OK the chain I could loose and I'll have a look at that tomorrow

and yes she did laugh and was gutted she didn't have her camera with her - I got my own back as later that day higher up she went head over... So funny walking in it one moment your walking along dropping in a a few inches then suddenly you drop knee deep or just fall flat on your face ;o) ... crazy to think all this 4hr drive from me

Re: Keep out

I am going to be contrarian... I love the contrast of the brilliant blue sky with the snow. I also like the contrary swooping lines of the fence/chain and the skyline.

You could put in some fluffy clouds, but hey, over here we have had little enough blue sky! I reckon there is an element of jealousy on Tom's part having seen photographs of the snow he has cleared!!!

Re: Keep out

thanks Richard - I did consider some fluffy clouds but I just like the plan blue sky ...

I did try the crop Alan suggested not sure about it
