[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This windmill sits at the base of Mount Princeton (14,197 feet). The storms had passed earlier in the day and the clouds were just hanging out. This is the first set of shots from my new D70s :). I used an 18-70 lens with a polarized filter. Thanks in advance for the honest feedback.

Hola Dan.Curiosa llanura junto a los montes nevados.Buena composicion y contrastes.Gracias.Saludos.

Hello Dan,

I'd say it is a very good shot for your first time out with new camera. It's a good shot for any camera. I really like the light, especially on the windmill. It is a really nice focal point. Thanks for sharing.

Bonjour Dan
Félicitation pour cette très jolie prise de vue . C'est vraiment un beau paysageet les couleurs sont justes.Félicitations pour la belle composition.
Merci pour l'envoie et Bravo....JP

Hi,
Somehow the focus doesn't look sharp enough. I like the composition, although the windmill could be a little more prominent.

Hello Dan,
Interesting motif!
The mountain range itself is for sure worth an image, with the windmill included it is awesome!
Probably use for the well, I guess this is grazing fields...
Pleasant composition, good natural colours and fine details!

Hi Dan,
An excellent photo with perfect exposure and DOF. I like the fact that the f/g is slightly darker then the m/g. It gives this extra sense of depth. The way you've captured the mountains is beautiful, with both summits out of the center. The windmill is a great bonus and allows the viewer to return to when wandering through your photo. About the remark from John on the soft focus, this has to do with resizing. It is best to sharpen the photo a little bit after resizing it.
TFS,
Niek
