A Day By The River

C+C Welcome

The first comment has to be the composition - superb. This again had a wonderful 3D perspective. That sky is awesome. Th e foreground is maybe a wee bit too sharp and lost something. But that is VERY picky. Nice stuff ~ John

This is great Stewart, I love it!

Thanks John & Jan.

I have tried to make the grass look spiky and sharp like the row of posts pic I posted a few months back.

Stewart,

When I opened this post and the picture came up I went "Oh Wow!"

Great shot! Almost looks like you painted it.

I'm beginning to see that the sharpness is a style for you, and I for one like it.

Keep up the great work!

I like this a lot too - it does look like a painting!

Thanks John, it is a thing I like to do to some of the pictures I take that I deem suitable for the effect.

In the darkroom days people used to do lith prints which looked very stark and Ihave just blended that sort of image with the original and then done some fine tuning and saturating.

Thank You Lisa.

I guess you could say I am a failed painter who has found he can produce with a camera instead of a brush.
