I was driving on one of the highways in Wisconsin, or maybe it was Minnesota 2 weeks ago, and I spotted this super cool rounded hill with white clouds above it. I had to take the next exit and backtrack, but I think it was worth it.

While it kind of reminds me of an old school Windows screen saver, probably no one remembers those. A more current use of this type of image is I believe on the Claritin allergy medicine box. So hence my title. Now if that's not the case, I guess my title totally won't make any sense.... :)

Nikon D850 and 24-120mm

All comments welcome,

Jim

PS. Would you leave the geese in it?

I had to look for a bit to even find the geese at web resolution. That said once I did see them I can't unsee them anymore. They make an interesting element but there is something to be said for the clean aesthetic of just the grass, the sky, and the clouds.

Thanks Alan. I hadn't spotted them either until I was scrolling over the image zoomed in looking for dust spots.
 
What geese? I eventually found them after snagging the image and magnifying it. I plan to submit it to Sky Rizzi for their allergy adds. 🤣 Just kidding of course.

Ha ha. Thanks Doug! Yeah, I was shooting a bit wide, and they are a bit small in that.

Who knows? Maybe an allergy company will see this image and I will get rich from the royalties! :)

lol, perfect take, Jim.

I would definitely leave the geese in the frame.

My eyes seem to be older than I am, as it took me along time to find the geese. Just imagine all your viewers have substandard vision as I do and the geese become invisible. No need to edit this interesting image.:D

Ha ha, thanks Trent! I guess I will leave them in to be a surprise to the few that can find them. If I hadn't said anything, it sounds like no one would have even noticed them.

Now if I get this printed large, that's probably the only time they would be seen.
