Rick - I really like your composition with the large area of sky. The grasses and wildflowers are coming back and look as though they are doing what they do best after a fire.
Thanks to each of you for your comments. This fire occurred about eight years ago and, indeed, the grasses and the low vegetation are returning creating good browsing for deer.
I really like the composition as is. I Think it would be possible to make several fine images out of "subdivision crops" I'd love to see a crop of the bottom right quadrant. mike
I like the image, very strong....and the boldness of the trees is as striking as I imagined. I think because the original image is so bountiful that your possibilities are numerous. mike
Rick I always enjoy your work and use of minimalism perfected to a fine art .
Both versions are winners in my book. The first because I`m a sucker for big skys and the second because of the way you have zeroed in in the essention graphic elements of the composition. Very well done. take care. Bob
