This is wonderful! You obviously took your time composing this shot...the lines couldn't be arranged any better. I love the simplicity! Great shot! :toast:

One of the things which I try to tell new photographers is "Simplify! Simplify! Simplify!" This is just beautiful example of this motto. Very little here, but everything present is exactly what you want.

Thanks for posting.

Digging this!!!! The curved diagonals are reminescent of star trails across an earth-tone sky - beautifully composed Mike!!! :toast:

Simple & effective comp, the slightly curved diagonals and two tones/colors work well together..
I would just like more of a description about what I'm looking at, my only nit.
Well done :toast:
