Taken in Max Meadows Va. This used to be my Great Grandfathers land once upon a time.
I increased the saturation and cloned out some distractions in the grass.

Wow, tough crowd. This picture is fantastic.

I love the colors, the cropping, and the way the road hugs the bottom edge.

Nicely done.

Thanks! I actually did increase the sat some..too much and I would hear how I over did it! ha! :)

Beautiful shot. You should increase the saturation a little just to see how it looks. It might not work but what the heck. Great job on the composition.

i like where you're going with this but feel that the crop is too tight on the bottom... i don't like how the road hugs the frame like that, but i'm not sure theres much you could have done about that.

Also, I think some dodging and burning could have really accentuated the really interesting parts of your image like the red leaves in the bottom left, the road, and the sunlit hill top. And overall i think the image could use a bit more contrast through levels or curves.

Sorry for the long post but i really like the pic, thats the only reason i wanted to comment :) 7

I like the different layers. (foreground, middleground, background)

nice quiet looking place. reminds me of home.

Every color of the palette!! Very painterly.

Beautiful shot - the colours and layers are gorgeous. Couple of things though - the barbed wire in the foreground is distracting (I can imagine you were trying everything to shoot over it and still keep the road) and some of the colours are a bit washed out and may benefit from some boosting.

The whole thing seems a little OOF? Or maybe just a soft lens.
01/01/2008 09:44:02 PM
This is such an ordinary picture,but you make it look amazing..the colours,the crop..everything..it's a great picture
01/01/2008 08:22:59 PM
The road is really nice and the hill in the mid ground is good but they don't seem related.
01/01/2008 07:40:57 PM
The colors and composition are great, and the right amount of processing really works with this making it an even better landscape.
01/01/2008 05:58:34 PM
Very nice landscape !!! I have viewed way too many boring ones. Thanks for this one!
