I love the warm tones and the morning haze. It's some beautiful country over there. Looking at this makes me want to be there. Contractors are developing the hell out of a lot of it here. We still have some really pretty areas but I wonder how many will be left in a hundred years. BTW, I love a bunch of your stuff it's just hard to come up with the words sometimes.

Springdale AR?? surely Arkansas has wilderness to burn Andrew? I'm definitely a foggy sunny type of guy when it comes to photos... I want to get the Sydney Harbour bridge in a big fog... one day! I'm going to the harbour tonight with some shots in mind... evening and night.

Oh yeah, it's beautiful over here. I have to admit I was exaggerating in my last message but rabid developing disturbs me. There was an amazing valley I used to drive by on my way to work every day. Now a strip mall stands in its place. How many strip malls do we really need?

How mmany strippers need to go shopping.....?? We have block malls... four stories, three blocks and easy to get lost!

We have tons of those too. A mall can be a good place to get stuff but six or more within 30 miles of each other is a bit silly.

That means a lot that you appreciate it as I do.. this style of photography is hard to encounter but one of my aims.... 30 years ago I did one of simple farmland with mists.. the photo has mould and colour distortion with time but its still one of my favourites!

cagdasyoldas In reply to Sun-Seeker [2006-11-29 09:23:21 +0000 UTC]

jerryhazard [2006-11-27 09:01:10 +0000 UTC]

beautiful atmosphere here... and goes to show also, kit lenses don't exactly suck if you use them right...

I really dig all the detail in this, at first, it's sort of misleading because of the overall soft feel to the image, but as you look, wonderful surprises show up all over...

for what it's worth, it's far better than silly shot in your journal Great work mate!

Sun-Seeker In reply to jerryhazard [2006-11-29 09:37:18 +0000 UTC]

Agree.... how dare he!!!!! I think if you look at your f stop and optimize the lenses ability then why not use it.... It does say CANON on the outside and not Tokina or Trubant!

moonfullofstars [2006-11-27 04:20:23 +0000 UTC]

Fantastic photo! I really like the line of sunlight on the ground and the colour scheme is quite unusual. Reminds me of a scene from a sweeping saga type film

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Sun-Seeker In reply to moonfullofstars [2006-11-27 07:12:09 +0000 UTC]

Its the sunlight catching the low mist.. when I was sliding sliders at one stage that mist lit up most unnaturally.. he.. couldn't leave it.
I like the film idea.. which sweeping saga.. something from the American Civil War? With melvin Gibson???
