    Default Mountain Striations

    This is another image from the mountains in the Negev, around sunset. I applied CEP procontrast, with multiply blend mode at about 60% opacity. I'm working from my laptop here, so I can't really tell if I applied too much opacity...it depends on the angle of the display! I'm also wondering if it needs to be rotated CW a bit.

    C & C welcome.

    This is how I imagine it might look on Mars, the Red Planet! There is plenty of red but the various shades are nicely distributed throughout the image in layers and patches, creating interest and giving the eye places to wander. I think it does need some CW rotation.

    I really like any mountain landscapes where striations are visible. I also agree that a CW rotation is needed, **** it looks hot. Nice composition.

    Hi, Wendy, I love all the variations of color and the diagonal striations. Nicely seen.

    The image looks bright and hot. The layers of earth and the colors are arresting. I wonder what it would look like with a bit more contrast?

    Hi Wendy, this one invokes a feeling of hot and hazy-I'm getting thirsty just looking at it! The tones are gentle transitions with a strong orange pink hue, which are representative of many images I've seen via Google-though softer and easier on the eye. The sky appears as a hazy blue/grey. I like the composition and have mixed feelings about additional CW rotation as there is an area on the bottom which appears to be flat terrain. Perhaps just a touch?
