Not sure about this one. I kinda like it, but it was a fun morning...so I'm biased. Your thoughts?

I like it Rick! There's great light on those cliffs and everything else seems well framed and in proportion.

I've been so busy lately - I think I could use a fun morning like that!!

Hey Geoff! I've been wondering how you were doing. I thought of you tonight when I heard the news about the Zoo Lorakeets. We should go and do the Zoo again in a few weeks...

I like the wonderful coolness that you portray, even in the sunny light parts. Sky is maybe a tiny bit polarized for my personal taste but that's a minor nit.

Love everything beyond the forground. Beautiful light and composition there.

Nice shot rick, I think the sagebrush anchor does it for me. Great light also.

Looks great to me Rick

Rick,
The right side might be a little dark. IMHO, but a very cool shot nonetheless!

I like it Rick. You've captured some really nice light and I like the way the river leads you in. It feels kinda weighted on the left side though.

Looks good...

I like it, Rick. I do agree that it feels heavy on the left side but that's not a deal killer.

I like it too. I've been wanting an angle like this, but didn't think I could get that far over that direction... guess I need to explore more next time.

Nice job Rick. :toast:

Thanks all! I appreciate the response this got. This spot is real easy to get to Curtis. I've been at work for 15 hours now...and I'm gonna go home and drop. :wavey:

15 hours! You better be making a lot of money, Rick!

Well, being in management...the more I work, the less I make :rolleyes: I had to go in at 3am to do some server upgrades for our cable modem termination system.

That's why I don't do management. I'm way too lazy and undedicated... :biggrin:
