A big thank you to everyone for all of your comments. I was not expecting such a supportive response. I will be checking out your art one person at a time! Thanks again.
This photograph is an incredible example of the dynamic balance of color, light, subject, and composition. It forces an emotional response which is virtually inescapable. We see a photograph of this caliber far less often than we should.
Hal – It means alot to me that you have taken the time to critique this image with such kind words. It is that ‘emotional response’ that I strive for through photography. Thank you.
I see you got the poles in there whole… I wonder about the rocks and their formation if they are able to be seen whole as well. Nice site to see… makes me feel like I am in the darkened area… I am almost fenced in… but there is beauty that can be reached in the distance.
Ever since I first saw this shot I liked it. Fantastic composition and colour. Great treatment and subtle use of HDR as well. I am yet to get myself down there, but plan to in the near future. Top work Shane!
