Tonights fall image (plus new crop)

[Ben Egbert]

I just returned from Squaw Peak where I caught this show.

A crop per Jim's suggestion

Sweet - hard to ask for much more in this scene between the sunset colors, the clouds with showers, and the nice meadow scene below. Nice score.

That is such a sweet shot Ben! You did totally score with both the color and the colorful clouds!

I would crop 1/4 of the bottom off and lose as much of that empty grass as you can. go to a 9x16 pano format.

Lovely image Ben. I am likely there a week from today. Hope to catch some colors there.

I like the new crop.

Beautiful no matter the crop Ben. For me somewhere between the 2. Ken

Thanks Jameel. The oaks will be good for a few more day and the aspen are probably 1-2 weeks out. I will be in Canyonlands as of Sunday and for a week so I will probably miss the next phase. Alpine loop will be good next week I think.

Thanks Ken, I wanted a 24x36 aspect ratio so I did not crop the original.

Beautiful tree line. What types of trees are in this area?

Mostly oak and aspen (still green) and maybe a maple or two

Beautiful, Ben! I would crop a little less -- leave a little grass under the trees on the right. You have such nice clouds, I'm not sure I would crop them.

 

[Ben Egbert]

Thanks Monica I have another with a bit of light on the mountain

Hey Ben,

I was looking at the crop, maybe my idea wasn't a good idea. You cropped about where I thought, but looking at them both now, I think I like your original best. There is a lot of subtle detail in the grasses at the bottom of the original that I just didn't notice initially.

If there was to be a crop, I think Monika nailed it with the idea of leaving a little grass under the trees on the right, but then the crop is really small. If a crop were needed, Monika's idea is the way to go, but I am thinking that the original is still the best here.
