Hey Dave,
I like the way you framed the mountains with the gate. The fence on either side is also balanced well but I am debating taking a bit off the left (there appears to be a black, 1/2 circle shape......just above the shadow in the lower left) to maybe where the golden tree is in front of the evergreen (central left)......this would eliminate that shape..........Otherwise everything else is right on. Very nicely composed!
PS Post the shutter speed and if you used a tripod.........we try to give as much info on each picture so that others learn also when faced with such situations.

Hi Dave,

I would agree with Roman's assessment. I do like the framing - original and well visuallized.

The image looked a bit soft and I wanted to see how I could sharpen it up so I did Roman's crop at the same time.

USM in PSCS3 one round at 175/0.3/0 and three rounds at 125/0.2/0.

Thanks Robert...It's funny but all my scenics are very sharp and when I convert them to put on the board they tend to soften a bit. Thanks for the repost...

Repost looks great nice shot Dave.
