Hi Nick

Nice pastel sky with the sun peeping through. I Like the tree placement as and anchor and the Pano crop. The greens in the FG look muted..

Hi Nick, I like the way you have arranged the elements within this scene...very nice. I think it could use a touch more contrast to give it a little more impact and reduce the muted-look that Don mentions. Nice work!

[David Stephens]

I love the composition and the wonderful sky color. The fog might so a little better with a bit more contrast.

Thanks for the comments. I have lightened and increased saturation to the foreground and given the whole image a slight s curve.

Hi, Nick, I liked the muted tones in the foreground of the original post. It seems to be more of what you actually witnessed. I love the simple lines and the way you composed the shot.:S3:

A lovely scene, with well-arranged elements. The RP is a nice touch.

There is not an embedded profile so some people won't be seeing the colors accurately.

Well balanced pano comp, and I like the early morning feel to this with what appears to be a bit of mist in the distance. I would only have preferred a full round sun rather than having it cut by the line of clouds, but that is what you had that morning.

Thanks for the comments :S3:

[Arthur Morris]

Interesting. The repost is an improvement. I miss the upper half of the sun :)

[Morkel Erasmus]

Lovely mood and pano presentation here, repost is a tad better. Do you have any additional FG to add, Nick?

[nick clayton]

Thanks Artie and Morkel. Unfortunately I don't have any additional foreground Morkel.
