 This is my first photo with my new Mark II N! NO SENSOR DUST! I knew that would last about a week, so I decided to make the most out of a nice clean sensor (and an absolutely gorgeous, cloudless sky!).

Pretty much straight out of the camera.. Slight levels and USM to bring out the grass, and resize. It's very simple so I'm not sure how well it will do, but I like it regardless.

Title tells it all.

The more I look at your image, the more I respect the gradient of blue from top to bottom.

Nice.

I like this picture because it fades from top to bottom and then the green pops out at you.

Nice, but I can't help but expect the Microsoft logo to come sailing through.

Looks a little like the Windows XP background.

Nice color, but I think there is a little too much sky. Maybe placing the horizon at the bottom third would have been better.

Simplicity doesn't automatically make a great picture. Wile I love minimalism in photography, a good minimalist shot should nave *something* of interes in it (and very little else). Sorry to say this, but to mee this photograph is boring. IMO even if you tilted your camera in a creative way, you could make a better shot with this same subject.

Elegant. But just too simple for my tastes. How about a tree, or a person, or something?

ist's not THAT easy to show simplicity - this is just boredom

This shot is great, but would be a lot better with something more in the scene, a tree, animal, rock, something. But, I really do love the contrast between the blue and green.
