Clear Air

A Bosque Apache sunset (Cranes in the distance).
Basically out of camera, the blues are real in the clear cold New Mexico air.

Very nice; I would give up some sky to move the horizon line to the 1/3 position - I think it will make a stronger image.

[Hilary Hann]

I was thinking to give up some foreground, cropping to where the lines of reeds finish. I think the messier foreground adds nothing whereas the sky has a clean fresh look to it. There you are, some choices!

[Rachel Hollander]

Hi Dan - nice deep colors. My thoughts echo Hilary's, some off the bottom will strengthen this fine image.

TFS,
Rachel

Hi Dan

My first thought was to agree with Jay, but then I looked at Hilarys suggestion and that would work too, so maybe you could do both and make it a pano...!!

Love the colours

I agree with Hilary's suggestion. Also the tree onthe right is too close to the edge. Transition of color is good and pleasing to view.

[Roman Kurywczak]

I think both crop version will work and don't forget Robert's suggestion on the RH tree.

Hi Dan, I like Rachel's crop suggestion best... that was my initial thought when first viewing the image. Love the blue sky and the orange colors too!

[Andrew Aveley]

awesome colours and exposure control here. crop suggestion was my first thought also but still awesome colours

[Mark Wiseman]

Hi Dan,
I like the colours you obtained in your image. I agree with Jay about the crop and also feel the image will be stronger for it.
Well done and thanks for sharing,
Mark.
