Hampi reminds me Bagan at Sun down. Nice image.
But the one I like best is the last one. Maybe you should clone the tree on the left side...
Thank you for posting. :)

Aha! I thought you had been everywhere. You really should come and visit. January is very nice. I don't see snow in any of your shots. :)

This image was taken on the Kenai Peninsula in Alaska.

No Wendy I have not been everywhere :o. The World is very large is Life too short :)

Yes, there is no snow in my shots because we don't travel to snow or even cold places.
My wife doesn't like it. :o

But Canada attracts me very much indeed as much as US does. :)

Great shot and great place. :)

We wanted to go there - Alasca I mean - once but as it is rather cold... even in Summer. :o

Thank you for the trouble of posting. You are most welcome :)

Super shot Wendy. A real 'courting field'. [They]Those were the days:). A good sense of depth and the one colour landscape works wonderfully well.

Thanks Steve: I like this too. Wish my skills and camera could do the origianl scene justice, but I think I did well enough to get the feel of it anyway. Glad that you like it, and that it brought back some good memories. :)

And ... 'getting the feel of it' is what is should, primarily, be about. Steve has said the same thing in other threads (including today here in post #34) - that technical 'excellence' is not what turns him on. I think he's just so right. And, in this one, you have indeed conveyed a 'feeling' an 'emotion'. And you have stimulated emotion in others - Is there anything else that matters?

Sorry I couldn't blur the tower, I took the wrong lens :o

Only(i think) standing replica of the Parthenon from Greece.

Is this the golden hour; because if it is I can't see how it is easier. This is one of the few within ev span and properly exposed although I like the light. :)

Is this too much do you think.

Steve

That is a beauty.

My only question would be whether going further than f6.3 with the aperture would have given you enough DoF to get those leaves at the top left into focus as well - or is that motion blur?

But - composition is superb and control of light across the image is excellent.

Cheers Donald; I think you are right. I did a batch using the Canon software and now reworking them with photoshop elements and ACR, I like the light in this but thought it could do with being a little sharper, I've got another but not so good light so I'll stick with this. cheers :)

May be next time :D:D
Well, this is an improved already. I think the tree is important in the composition as you have done here

where I think the composition is very good and the light is gold. I do like this one :)

This is also a good work.

The trees are important in the composition. However, more detail in the shadows would be interesting.
Unlike Donald I would like to have the branches in the foreground at our left, more blurred, more out of focus. :)

And why do I like things this way ? Because - IMHO - what enhance the depth in a picture is the difference in sharpness along the various planes in it.
I hope to make myself understand. :)

I would also apply that concept on the second picture of yours, the one with the bridge. :)

When I just saw these pictures I thought they were from the original monument "repaired" in CS5 so powerful is this software. :)
The original monument is in fact, in a more rocky place...:)
The point where you took the shot of the replica is very low and this is returning a less flattering perspective. Maybe you could correct it...:rolleyes:
The second shot is interesting with a strong perspective, but I can't understand why the third image is tilted :)
Thank you for posting :)
