Hello Carolyn. I think I know this place. Is it close to Delta Colorado?

Hi rjs, It is just south of Pagosa Springs.

Beautiful shot, Carolyn. Like always. My only teeny critique would be that had I been shooting it, I might have made sure that the red barn in the background was more centered through the trees. The fact that it is a bright dash of color that is entirely different from the rest of the shot draws ones eyes to it but then we are frustrated because it is chopped into pieces by the trees. Either it should have been shot so the barn wasn't there at all or I would have made it a point of secondary interest in the shot. Just my two cents.

I was just in Delta and Grand Junction giving a Concert and a Master Class.

All best wishes,

Endre

Hi Carolyn,

What a lovely setting. I think you have captured a very nice image here. Personally, however, I would like to see a little more cropped off the top. I am not fond of the little bit of sky peaking through and a crop just above the barn might work better. Just a thought. Still a fabulous entry.
