Send in the Clouds
Right after a heavy rainfall I was able to capture this image of an area called Round Prairie in the Northeast part of Yellowstone. One of my favorite areas of the park for its mountainous terrain.

I'm not totally sold on the ULC but I like the rest.

Thanks for taking a look. Any critique, opinion or anything else you would like to add would be much appreciated.

I love these water scenarios you capture in Yellowstone, Dean. They really impart a sense of tranquility for me. Perfect composition, wonderful light and 'developed' just right. And of course, it sure helps the overall quality when you have scenery this beautiful! As for the ULC, well it is what it is. I'm not quite sure what the problem is, and I reckon that's good...right? This is an excellent image no matter what you end up doing there, though!

I echo John's comments. What is the problem with the UPC? I see none.

ULC? UPC? Huh? :confused:

Great image Dean. The color's are fantastic. YNP and GTNP are my most favorite places on earth. You have a great eye for composition.

What draws me most to the image is the glow reflecting off the water.

CIANOPROBULC. :biggrin: :jump Howard, ULC means upper left corner. UPC is a barcode, or in this case is probably a typo.

Let me echo John's comments on your water music from up there. Gorgeous work as always. Love the light and color and your comp. I think I like this one a little more than the one you posted on Landscape because of the prominence of the peaks in this tighter comp.

I'm with Mumaw on your ability to capture these river scenes so well. This is a stunner!

Dean, I think it's just lovely. Nicely composed, beautiful colors, wonderful mood.

This is stellar, Dean. I see nothing at all to nitpick. Always a pleasure to see your work.

Beautiful shot. I like the comp and the soft pastel light/color is great. :toast:

Looks great to me, Dean! :smile:
