I am participating in the "Why a '5' not a '6'?" commenting activity (see recent forum thread). Viewers are asked to leave a comment with some of their votes of '5' letting the photographer know why, for them, it fell short of a vote of '6'. If you have found this comment useful, you may wish to offer some of your own to those images where you vote 5.
I like the almost abstract presentation of this. Why a five and not a six? The lighting, especially in the distance (the glacier, I suppose), feels a bit harsh. I think shooting earlier or later in the day might have produced more dramatic shadows and offered a lot more options. Still, it's very compelling, and I like the cool tones and quirky geological forms. |
