Bluer than Blue

This is gorgeous. I love the angles and color contrasts. My only wish is that the background at the top wasn't such a lighter color than the rest of the composition and thus more noticeable/distracting. But overall I think the image is very strong.

yes, more intriguing in black and white.

For some reason, I think the vignette in the sky is too much, because the the lowers corners of the image are so square. I realize it's a natural vignette, but with all the horizontal lines in this, it seems to conflict.
Now for the good part. I like the image. There is something happening here -- as Melethia says, you can see the wind. The colors are lovely too. I'm wondering if a narrow border would take care of my concern about the vignette -- leave the vignette, but bring the black from below up around the upper corners.

I like! One can definitely tell the prevailing direction of the wind from this shot. I like the low cloud level on the horizon behind the trees, too. Processing looks good to - not too much, not overdone - just right!

I think this is a very uplifting and pretty image. Truly representative of Spring. To me it represents good things, and the promise of many good things yet to come.

This is amazing...looks as though the house is falling down as you snap away. Love the look and feel of this.

Comment by Melethia:
Interesting title to this one - and I like the shot. Has sort of a dismal, bleak feel to it, which I figure based on your title, is sort of what you were after.

Dude...Time to upgrade??

Good shot, and even the photographer looks like an anachronism. BTW I like the sepia -- adds to the old feeling of the scene.
