Re: Large Format Landscapes
This is a good one EL. I like how the shadow lines up perfectly with the curve of the rock, and also how the sunlit boulder in the corner echoes the cloud at top left. You either have incredible timing or, with a good eye, you very patiently waited for the right moment. I suspect the latter. Nice.

I was wandering about central Utah at the end of October and came across this stand of backlit cottonwoods. I was impressed at what a nice job Portra did holding together both ends of the exposure range.

Re: Large Format Landscapes
Beautiful bit of color that you found, Harley. Now it is a matter of using it in compositionally -- because right now, that is all you have, a nice bit of color.
Re: Large Format Landscapes
I think thats a little harsh. It has a lot of complex space, line and very interesting tone in all of the colours. And if its not about the light, then I dont know if any of your carbons are. I like it anyway.
Re: Large Format Landscapes
I see the colour and I also see composition, linear, striated, captivating.

I disagree. I noticed the composition before I even noticed the color. In fact the color gets in the way a bit. I like it. If it was mine I might crop it a bit differently, but it's good as is.

Re: Large Format Landscapes
You already know that I like this one a lot. To my mind it has a nice balance with the layers of vegetation and the varied strata, and the light speaks well of a sunny day in the desert. Portra was a perfect choice for this.
