Well-known
Thanks for the opportunity to comment on these wonderful shots.
remrf, Tucson from A Mountain -- This shot really "pops"! I like it very much. The details apparent in this image are amazingly clear, and the beautifully rendered mountains in the background really stand out in contrast to the city in the foreground. It's a great study of city vs. nature.
I wonder what format and focal length was used here? It may also have been interesting to include some other foreground object or structure to show even more "depth" in the landscape.
raid, untitled -- Beautiful symmetry and lovely, calming colors. This is a great piece of abstract art that also happens to show the very real beauty of this location.
I wonder how this shot would look with a touch more contrast and color saturation. Perhaps it would change the feeling of it too much.
samdj1210, windy day on the seawall -- I really like the blur of the plants in the foreground to show the wind. I also like how the two trees are arranged to show perspective and relative distance. The placement of the subtle green colored plants also work nicely to balance the dramatic blue sky.
I'm not sure if its my bad eyesight, but the middle part of the shot may not be as sharp as it could be. Maybe applying a little more sharpening to that region would help since the eye naturally tends to focus there.
ampguy, the lake -- This could very well be Raid's location on a different day and under different conditions 🙂. It's interesting how colors cause certain feelings, and as expected, the blue tint of this image gives a feeling of coldness and foreboding, like the feeling you would get from an incoming storm. I am curious as to how you made this color in your picture. You also captured some very dramatic cloud patterns in the sky, very nice.
The objects in the upper left and lower right are a little distracting. Perhaps cropping those out, and lowering the horizon (out of the center) and showing more sky would add a little more impact.
Thanks again, folks.
