The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
Hi, Billy, I only have 30 more comments to write. I had started at the bottom and was working my way up the list but decided to try commenting on a more recent post and have started to work from the top down. There are still 5 commenters above me, but it's better than being 25th.
I like how you left the log in the foreground to add DoF to the shot. Is this an occasional dry creekbed, because that almost looks like a creek crossing on the far side? Being the neat nut that I am, I probably would have cloned out those green poles on the left. Is this the place that you do your laundry? I can just see you kneeling by the water beating your clothes against a big rock. Or maybe you're modernized enough to own a prized wash board. I imagine you bring along a length of rope and run it between those green poles to hang your laundry.
Nice colors and good detail work. You handled the varied lighting very well.
