I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.
Positives: I really like the way you haven't taken a conventional landscape route here - the line of colour is (of course) fantastic and (of course) makes the image. The brilliance is how the image plays with a sense of scale, compressing and expanding our horizons at the same time. I think your colour levels and luminosity is bang on too.
Critical stuff: Nothing at all. I really like it.
Overall: I'm surprised at how much the introduction of a little bit of the unexpected can enhance an otherwise fairly dull image. With it, it has become something else entirely. Excellent. |
