Northern Utah + repost
Captured this image this morning. Had to get above the inversion. Once I did the views were pretty nice. Thanks for looking and C&C welcome.

Very Nice Jeff! I really like the placement and the scale of the mountain in the image. Could just be me or is there a slight tilt down to the right?

I really like the placement of the mountain peak to give the low clouds a good reference point. I would like to see the entire photo a good deal brighter though, looks like a polarizer was used causing some vignetting.

Well done! I really like the comp and dynamic feeling in this image.

Sccott and Don I have tried to address the mentioned issues in this repost. I saw the 'tilt' right away and fixed it here, but could not change the image in 'edit', so I left it. Don, the vignetting was probably from some overzealous burning, so I tried to tame it down a bit and brighten up the entire scene.

BTW I am now working with a new camera, Nikon D90, and a new computer, and new to me CS2. Semi-long story about the CS2 so I won't bore you. (NOT bootlegged) I used to do all my photography with a D70, a ten year old computer and Elements2 (that's all the PC could run). I always seem to be just behind the tech times. Thanks for your time and I appreciate your input.

Jeff,

I really like this...great perspective and vision for this one. Nice job!

Yea repost! :smile: I had the same thought as Don, and the repost looks great. You could even put back a little vignetting on the left corners to balance what you have on the right, but it certainly works as is. Excellent work.
