Dallas Divide Morning
Been a while since I have posted here. Tough work schedule. Worked on this one today since the bad weather gave me a day off. :smile:

My first instinct when evaluating a scene like this would be to use the equivalent of a red filter to darken the sky. Obviously, I would be wrong! This is really nice, Klaus.

Everything about this really zings with me. Love the fence line and all the foreground texture. I think the sky looks great. Good choice to go with the B&W.

Fine image, Klaus.....translates perfect to BW. Was this taken along the Hwy or a one of the smaller roads? Joe Rogers

Great shot, made even better with the inclusion of grass and sage in the FG.

The fence and the open meadows create some nice depth to the image. Very well put together.

I love the comp, Klaus. The foreground grasses and fence really work well. Great sky too.

I like this one a lot. I wish you would post the color version too. Thanks for sharing. :smile:

While I appreciate good b&w images, I greatly prefer the color version of this scene.

Oh, yeah, John, I'm all about the color version, too. Great shot.

Thanks everyone for the kind comments and thoughts.

John and Morris,
Thanks and I have to agree I like the color version much better. :smile:

Nice shot. Like the fence and the grass in the foreground. Nice sky as well.
