Another image from last week. I really wanted to catch the flowers backlit, and I like that part of the image, but I'm not sure about the sky. Is the right side too distracting for you?
It looks pretty natural as a light source. The flowers are backlit from that direction, so it does come across pretty natural I think. Great work here!
I've run into the same problem with skies, as you mention.The bright side just seems to pull my eye and unbalance things. Maybe I'm oversensitive to it bc it is a problem I have already encountered. Anyways, the rest of the image is great.

Gorgeous shot. It looks like the DOF drops off really fast... is that the case or is that just the lower rez of the web?
Still, very nice.

Terry, I don't think there is a dof issue here. I'll look at the original file, but most likely a combo of compression and some motion in the flowers-there was a slight breeze (as there almost always is in skagit valley).
Thanks everyone for the comments. I figured this would be ok for some and not for others.
