Found this one as I was going through some older images as I am importing them into Lightroom 2. I liked it and thought I would share with you. What do you think?

Hi Mac,

Like the clouds, like the peaks and rolling hills in front of the peaks. Like the fence and trees in the middle ground. Without a strong FG element to go with it, the large expanse of FG grass is too large. Crop off below the fence into a pano and you have a winner.

Hi Robert,

Here is the image with your suggestions impemented. I like it but I found it necessay to crop off some of the top of the image or it didn't improve it at all. Thanks for the suggestions.

I agree Mac. It looks great.

Hi Mac,
Robert was reading my mind.........and your pano crop works extremely well for me! I am posting a smaller crop...1/3 FG......2/3 sky which does work for me also......this is just to give you another possibility to explore.

I think the pano rocks! Nicely done

Roman-
I love yours and I thought about doing that but decided the pano was a little better. But as you have often pointed out it is a matter of personel taste. Thanks for the efforts, as usual I like your idea as well as my own.
Mac
