Very nice colors Pierre. Perhaps it would have been a bit nicer if those cars (or whatever they are) on the left, under the trees weren't there. But nice photo.
I will never understand why someone worries about a car off in the distance or power and phone lines, they are part of the overall scene, and really do not detract at all..We can not live in this world with out them.. This is the grand vista.. Love it, cars and all..

If my comment on your work ever seems to criticise, it does not. It is always so that we may learn together.
I am so so kidding. This is one that I keep going back and forth on, that and the other you have of this scene. I think I am leaning towards this one, just because there is that little bit more of a foreground/landscape in it.
Conceptually, both are very strong. And this points directly back, and credited, to your 'eye.' Quite a remarkable image and I give you credit for having seen it first in your mind's eye and then executing it. Wonderful capture.
The colours are beautiful. So rich, and combined with the textures present ... nice. I believe you may have created another candidate for the next Windows O/S.
just like the windows xp wallapaper 'bliss'...just that this one is 10x better. As for the cars under the trees, i didnt notice them until i read a few posts. Thats fixable in photoshop in a way.
This photo needs a grazing buffalo or two. I never noticed (initially) the cars. They need brushed away. The photo invokes feelings and hopes of better (greener) days. I wonder what that tree did to alienate itself from its wooded brethern?
