Another warm one from October. The red sumac spread across the field is almost as good as a log on the fireplace.

Nice. :o)

Like your composition, particularly and with respect to that of the more dominant 'lone' tree and it's placement within frame.

Colours look rich, vibrant ... and natural. Clarity/focus are good good.


Not one to waste stuff, some food for thought ... courtesy of Russ; aka ryzst:

"Getting Ready"

In Russ's comments contained on that page, there is a link to a great explanation of image bit-depth.. in addition to the suggestions he made to improve image quality when editing/post processing.


As I am slightly ... ever so slightly, detecting some banding/posterization in the sky. Upper left-hand side.

Although, this could be due more to the site's software compressing/recompression of photographic data. (The site's 'suggested viewing resolution' for me in this case is 838 X 558.)

On this note, do you upload in PNG format? (<--- Item of curiosity for me and an f.y.i. for you, although I do believe you are probably aware of this. Just dottin' the i's and crossing the t's here.)

That aside..


Now this.. is a sight for snow-sore eyes. :o)

And but of course, thank you for sharing this one with us. :o)

The ferns in the foreground gives the eye a lead to the shrubs/trees beyond!

Glad that my photo could be used as an example of what not to do...ha ha. (Getting Ready).

The plants in the front really set the warm and colorful tone for the entire photo. Nicely done.

The red sumac in that nice sun is better than any log in any fire! I am wanting days like this back! It a great shot, love all the different colors spread evenly throughout the whole image. Great shot

Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and I thought to myself, where the heck is the ceiling.
