Hello, Adrian. Love the way the foreground slopes seem to flow in concert with the background. Nicely seen.

You could optionally make this a pano type presentation by cropping the sky to a tad above the low clouds on the right. It really makes the lighting on the foreground stand out.

Cheers,
Ed

Nice one Adrian - I do like the balance in this shot. I am going to disagree on the need to crop this one given the nice symmetry of the mound in the foreground and the shape of the cloud in the upper left.

Beautiful shot Adrian. The rich green foreground and the blue tone of the BG contrast nicely. Good work.

I like this as is, Adrian. I love the whole scene. Is the foreground grass an area that is grazed? I was wondering why the grass was so short there.

Another GEM from a wonderful Scottish seaside. The light you always seem to capture
is so inviting.

Thank you Ed .Thanks also for the pano suggestion , but I prefer to keep the cloud patterns intact on this occasion !

Thanks for your very kind comments , Binh. We all need a bit of colourful cheer as the winter closes in here !

Thanks Alan. We agree on the balance here ! I'm always reluctant to crop or abandon good cloud formations , and this is no exception .

It's very hard to make an image under the conditions, full sun, etc. But you succeeded very well. Well done!

I'm too for a pano crop, but then, the clouds are really nice too (and that sky is so un-scottish ... just kiddin').

Nice collection of bumps Adrian. From the foreground out to the clouds, the repetition of shapes pleases the eye.

I can see the wind blow!

Wouldn't be able to if this were cropped as a pano, so I vote to see the great clouds in balance and counter balance with the rolling hills.
