I adore climbing around on rocks and exploring their otherworldly configurations. I can't wait to travel one day, with my camera, to all the places in the West and Southwest that I've missed.<br /><br />I'm glad to be back visiting my blogging friends!Lynda Lehmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10914824862008453219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3291622623416959170.post-43304990462569454802009-07-19T10:48:13.896-07:002009-07-19T10:48:13.896-07:00I've always been a silent but loyal reader of ...I've always been a silent but loyal reader of your blog, and I just gotta say, your photos are absolutely stunning!

I'll endorse everything you say about The Mindful Eye and thanks for letting me know about it the other week, it's been a great help. Especially helpful for me just starting out using RAW, along with the more obvious advice on offer at that site.<br /><br />Love the texture in the foreground and those two rock lead the eye in fantastically!<br /><br />ps the Russians are coming your way... well the dust from a volcanic eruption in Russia :)Which should make for unusual colour schemes in the sky. Don't know if that's any use to you just thought I'd let you know :)Ashrayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15460112927441395082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3291622623416959170.post-21898443989805496462009-07-15T02:39:55.307-07:002009-07-15T02:39:55.307-07:00Mark, I guess you know that with this kind of hues...Mark, I guess you know that with this kind of hues i can just say "Bravo" !<br /><br />I'll have to check your links, hope to find a little time before the end of this week.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12921434116176385727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3291622623416959170.post-57426437708776705222009-07-14T13:17:32.872-07:002009-07-14T13:17:32.872-07:00There is just so much texture and vibrant color to...There is just so much texture and vibrant color to this shot which makes it so spectacular and unique.

I listened to Craig critique one of his own photographs. He was talking about rule of thirds, which I didn't understand completely. Looking at your image, I see large foreground boulders, a setting sky (I would think, without the fire) and a moon scape. Rule of thirds? I had to laugh, because I only use the rule of thirds in my jewelry designs and grouping items on a shelf. Things just look better, "odd"!storybeaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02401051545867204851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3291622623416959170.post-18758833940241842342009-07-13T19:31:45.483-07:002009-07-13T19:31:45.483-07:00This is one of those images where I am just struck...This is one of those images where I am just struck by so many elements - hard and soft, smooth and rough - and the colour... That is such a cerebral description for a photo that is full of a feeling I can't quite pin down... Love it!<br /><br />And I love the post on Talent. Just proof that inspiration is a small part of it - hard work is the rest. After all - I was told I shouldn't waste my time painting. But I just had to do it!Michelle B.

And I'm wabit (exhausted) as me old grandfaither used to say. <br /><br />However the foreground local contrast looks emasculate!Ashrayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15460112927441395082noreply@blogger.com
