Location: Rural farm half mile outside New Liberty, IA

Galleries: Landscape, Rural
Date Uploaded: Apr 12, 2005

 I shot this by the town I grew up in. You could see this farm from my treehouse when I was a little kid. It is a cool area and I cannot wait until a good full moon so I can go photograph this place at night.

Interesting composition, but a bit too saturated and a bit odd on the detail (neat image?) in the right background and on the side of the building.

Although the compostion is not bad the photo is oversaturated and the light gives it a flat look. I might try shooting this again under different light conditions

This is a good shot IMO. Maybe to strong colours and contrast, but good shot nevertheless.

Don't know if you boosted saturation, but it looks cartoonish.

Good composition. The lighting isn't right though. The lack of light buried the detail in the structure. The fallen tree is just too dark.

over use of saturation ruins many a good photo. However very nice composition

This seems over processinged so colors are too saturated.

I like that you used something in the foreground of this image. I would like to view this on my CRT as it has funny coloration on my laptop. Will return later to further comment.

Wierd saturation effects, detracts from the photo, IMO.

WOW way to mucy USM. The photo in my opinion is way to blurry or OoF but if the photo had more clarity would have made for an excellent shot. Good luck in this challenge.

The building seems to be out of focus to me, also the colors appear to be over-saturated in my opinion.
