Heh. The lighting is inconsistent - is that a power or what behind it?

In my opinion, the shadows on the rocks from the overhead lighting doesn't "fit" with the "late sunset" background. Other than that, a great composition.

The shadow of the rocks on the backdrop gives it away... ;-/

This is a very interesting photo... the colors are quite vivid. This reminds me a great deal of a recent challenge photo with a seashell agains a similar vividly colored background... this background makes your subject stand out very nicely... excellent work :)

This is my favorite so far - gorgeous background and I love the different textures and flowing, smooth lines of the rocks. Great photo!

I love this. I don't know why. I don't usually like this sort of thing.
The roundness and smooth quality of the stones, and the way they are stacked creates a sense of tentative balance. The lighting is perfect and the colors amazing. This is - imho - very Zen (in my limited understanding of the word). Marvelous interpretation. Marvelous job!

Quirky and colourful I like this a lot, though I think I'd prefer to exclude the bottom area and have the large complete stone as the lower edge of the image.

Registered UserPidd 07/30/2003 12:22:08 PM
this is pretty neat. I like the red of the background contrasting the yellow of the rocks. I also like the variety of textures you've captured on the different stones.

Maybe some fill lighting to re=move some (but not all) for the shadows. The tight shadows where two rocks meet is good, the flowing shadow that obscurs half of a rock in darkness is not as good. Great background sky.
