Hi again,

First of all, i would like to raise your attention on our BIG TN MEETING and the fact that we are voting not for the location and timing of this event. Please, if you are interested and willing to come, click here and have your say.

As for this is shot, i took it while coming back from the Bear's Cave last month. After leaving the mountain area and returning the to the flat roads, i looked back one and immediately told my friend he had to pull over so that i can take a picture.
The sun was shining from about 10 o'clock here and making all those layers of hills and mountains look so nice and obvious.

This is the original color of the scene...i didn't play with it in any way.

Hop you'll like it and thanks for visiting.

Hi Horia,
I love this photo. The tabacco color and the gradient layes of mountains are a gift for the eyes. It's something that makes a scene tranquil and serene. I also love that you allowed for some flat land in the FG and that it has some green color to break the rest of the composition. This really looks like a place that must be explored and exposed.
TFS,
Niek

Hola Horia,
nos presentas una toma muy realista, sin estridencias y sin ser muy llamativa,pero es que las cosas son así... y así las captaste. Buen juego de luces y colores con una buena presentación.
Un saludo: Josep Ignasi.

Hi Horia,
this is like a watercolour-painting, I like it very much, such a silent and peaceful atmosphere in your shot, very pretty, thanks

Hi Horia,
A nice capture of this beautiful landscape. Very well composed with nice colors. Thanks a lot for sharing.

Hi Horia,
Simply beautiful, nice natural colors in fine layers and the mood here is great. I would have preferred less foreground here, 50% of what is shown. That does not take away beauty of this image, anyway. tfs.

hello Horia!
a landscape in which levels of shapes and colors are wondering ........ I love the atmosphere and the graphic natural of this photo...one of my favorite!

best sERGIO

Just as I was telling Ivan..and again here..There is a tiered imagery in the backdrop, which in your case is teh whole image indirectly. the various tones picked up so well by a Canon and a man with a good eye, give differentiating depths of field. It works for me Horia!

Hello Horia,
A super shot, posted as it was.
The slight mist in the air has accentuated the distances in this landscape and given it extraordinary depth. There isn't much colour in it but if you made it a B&W it would be much less appealing. Simply beautiful!
Well done and TFS!
Best wishes my friend,
Ivan

Hi mate.

Very nice image captured here. I really like the layers of hills disappearing off into the distance and the subtle tones and colours.

Hi Horia!

This shot somehow differs from your usual style, maybe in colors and contrast, maybe in other terms too. But it was much worth trying this way as it turned out to look wonderful! Displaying layers is not always easy even if they look separate live but you managed it very well.

As for the meeting I'm still trying to arrange things at home so I can make a decision on coming. But as soon as I know I will write my opinion in the forum.

So TFS and have a nice week!

Cheers,
Andor
