This would really be a fantastic picture if it wasn't a little blurry. Still, I tried my best. If anyone can give me advice on how to not take blurry pictures that'd be great.

pretty scene and nice warm colors from the sky - but I really don't think of the sun as an artificial light source.

Use a single, artificial light source to dramatically light the subject of your choice. Artificial light?

"Use a single, artificial light source"

I usually give people the benefit of the doubt when it comes to meeting the challenge description, but your title makes it pretty clear that this one DNMC, sorry...

Pleasing photo otherwise, though.

the challenge called for a single, artificial light...
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This doesn't appear to have used a single ARTIFICIAL light source.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/08/2007 12:47:16 PM
I don't think that sun light qualifies as an artificial light source.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/08/2007 12:20:37 PM
Single artificial light source ?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/08/2007 11:40:06 AM
Beautiful picture, but not the artificial light source.

sorry, DNMC.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Rules call for "a single, artificial light source." Anything outside in daylight is using the sun - a natural light source. DNMC.

The challenge description says:

Use a single, artificial light source to dramatically light the subject of your choice

I'm sorry but this does not meet the challenge.

I do like this photo, though. Very good perspective.

artifial light?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/07/2007 08:00:04 AM
This appears to be natural light and not artifical light as required by the challenge description.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/07/2007 07:24:35 AM
It's a successful landscape study, albeit the white balance being off. But i'm giving you a low score because that doesn't adhere to the challenge rules (artificial light source).

Challenge description said: "Use a single, ARTIFICIAL light source to dramatically light the subject of your choice."

Challenge specifies a "single, artificial light source", unfortunately. But this is a lovely scene.
