p.1 #1 · Land of Enchantment

The New Mexico auto license plate says "Land of Enchantment", and I'm inclined to agree. My first time posting outside the nature forum - but since I put up a landscape there to give reference to some wildlife silhouettes, I thought I'd share it here with a couple others. I generally chase wildlife, and fail to slow down enough for landscapes - but I'm trying.

Thanks for looking, and any comments are welcome

Hey Jim,

It's good to see you venturing out of the Nature forum and stopping by here. I like what you shot here, #1 is really sweet! #3 might be my next favorite. Have you thought about converting #2 to B&W? I think it would work well.

Jim, thanks for the comment. I haven't tried it in B&W, but I will with your suggestion. I'll be trying to slooooow down and improve my landscapes going forward.

Really nice shots, Jim. (Oh, no.....another one!

)
Love the layers of color and light in the 1st, and the atmospherics in the last are very cool. (though I might be tempted to tone down the blues in the clouds and shadows)
I think Jim (see?) has a good idea for the 2nd.

Thank you for the suggestion to tone down the blue, I need a little objective critique for sure - a little patience on my part might help too!

Hi Jim
All three of these are very nice. If I had to pick I would choose 1, then 3 as my favorites. Great colors in the first. The third has great compsition and a dramatic sky. Nicely seen.

Thank you Scott, #1 is by far my fav too. #3 leaves me wishing for a bit wider perspective and I wish now I would have stitched a couple images - Oh well, next time, as I'll be back there.
