Energy/Range/Story: 6/6/5
Composition/perspective/manner: 6/7/6
Aesthetics/Technical:6/8
Presentation: 6
Total: 6.2
Vote: 6

Remarks: I suppose my personal taste for tone-mapped photos (?) is a little restrained by a little too much of a good thing. Here the landscape has survived the technique, not only intact but with good detail and a credible colour store.
A quiet shot, clearly composed and enjoyable.

Comment by socalsteve:
I always find it amazing how close the lens gets to the subject on macro shots like this - you never think so until you come out from behind the camera and take a look. Using a wide-angle is insane - I just got one and I'm centimeters from the subject. Decent shot but a bit soft.

Nice candid shot of Amanda. I think I feel like you Ken. I've got a real good dose of the flu and just feel like hibernating.
