hmmm i think its missing YOU coz you never get in front of the damn camera!! (i'm gonna start saying "coz" instead of "cuz" like you do coz i think its cool)
I thought about it a bit, I'm thinking an even lower perspective - if you were down on your belly in exactly the same spot I think it may have the BLING you are seeking?
Did you use a tripod? I'm thinking the ground in front looks a tad dizzy.
I am just spellbound with this result Roz..... Truely a great landscape.
It is just breathtaking and so wonderfull, especially the tones.....
I love the misty feeling theough the trees.....Also love the textures.
Love how the path leads one right into the misty backgound.....
I can never capture mist as well as this. I can feel the dampness of the air just looking at it. It gives the shot quite a harsh feel (especially in terms of the sky) but for me it really works. Maybe a slight crop on the right to remove the small branches and therefore make the mist shrouded tree stand out even more?
Well. . . I LOVE photos like this, and I don't think it's missing anything. It's beautiful. Ethereal. And I love it. I love the sky too, and don't think its burned out.
I like this pic alot. I see alot of fog too living in the mountains of pennsylvania. This has a fairy tale look to it. All ya need is a little girl and boy droppin bread crumbs or sumthin like that. anyways good job on this one
you said: this image is missing something ..
like its a beautiful scene .. the composition is ok ... black & white seems to work .. but it just doesnt do it for me ... one of the things i do like that other ppl probably wont is the 'burnt out' sky ...
suggestions welcome!!!!!!!! I think the burnt sky is the result of the mist...or is the mist. Anyone who has seen morning mist should appreciate that. I like the grey scale from bottom to top on both sides of the photo.
I am familiar with scenes like this from the mountains of Pennsylvania - on the old lumber trails in the hills behind my parents house. The mist (fog as we call it) "burns off" by late morning and it's always fun to watch - especially when fishing. I love this photo
