    Default Bosque Trees

    I used my 500mm lens for this one. I added the Topaz Simplify BuzSim filter and a texture overlay. I was waiting for the snow geese to blast-off, my eye kept getting distracted by this scene with the last bit of light coming through the trees. I decided to take my eye off the flock-change my settings and go for it! I ended up missing the blast-off but I ended up with an image I like so I guess it all worked out.

    The colors are wonderful, and the geese add a lot. I took a look at it with some cropped off the top but dismissed it as a bad idea when I realized that the diagonal that parallels the one through the center would be lost. Nice job with the texture and Simplify.

    I said Wow! (out loud) when I opened this and saw the geese at the bottom. This is beautifully developed, Denise. The light through the trees is gorgeous!

    This is super! Fabulous texture on the trees, the glow is fantastic and the geese are a bonus. Sorry about the blast-off.

    Great looking image, Denise. The guys add a nice contrast to the darken, soft mood of the image.

    Gorgeous. Love the light and texture. Those towering trees make the geese look small, and the geese add a touch of softness to the trees.

    I can't believe I missed this image. I love the colors, the texture work is spot on.
