    The wind was really blowing so i decided to try an experiment with a slower shutter. What do you think?

    Bob, I like the horizontal bands of color and the blur of the grasses. It would be nice if the foreground grasses were moving in the same direction as the middle grasses. I think cropping from the bottom about half way between the dark green grasses and the bottom edge would minimize that and a pano image but it is very peaceful as it is presented. I love the lighting also.:)

    Bob, I really love the sweeping look to the grasses and as Cheryl suggests a crop from the bottom would be nice. I might also consider a crop from the top instead if it were mine- just below the dark patch on the right. Very lovely color tones and warmth to the image.:)

    Bob, good thinking to try something new! I like the nice blur effect you got and the bands of color and texture. I would also suggest a tad off the bottom but would leave the top, maybe clone out the dark spots. I always think it's cool to get several different takes on an image. Shows that it is interesting!
