Peeking through the grasses!
This is from Colorado last December, and I saw a potential for a good sunset in the clouds. I went to where the local barn is with one of the granddaughters to catch the sunset. I caught it with the barn and those looked great, but as the clouds continued to radiate out those colors I wanted to get some other images then just at the barn. There is also a small lake there that I was hoping to get a bit of a reflection from too. This composition doesn't let much of the reflection in, but the point of this was to try and use the grasses to mask the houses on the far side of the lake a bit. I had never said a word to Ben about trying to minimize the houses so they didn't jump out in the scene, but he naturally saw the potential issue and helped tame them with his processing style.
All comments are welcome,
