Hi Dale,

The lighting is stunning in the image and captured very well in excellent colour too. Well balanced composition and great depth, the small islands are well placed in the frame from a well chosen point of view. Well done, thanks for sharing.

Regards,
James

Hello Dale,

I don't know certainly or you use HDR in foreground through the strong colors.
Yet I find these picture not disturbing, but on the contrary, very nice for look at.
Perspective and depth are very well.
Also the mountains in background care for an attractive picture.
Nice captured and good composed. TFS.

Best regards,
John.

Hi Dale,
Good composition, interesting landscape of light and shadow and the riot of colors.In my opinion your job would be even better - what if it was sharp at f / 3.6 is impossible. Why is the landscape of this aperture you used?
Regards, Greg

Hi Dale!
It so amazing that it takes my breath away. You created an unusual, romantic atmosphere. Superb colors of grass, wonderful delicate trees create an incredibly mood.

Warm regards, my friend.

Hi Dale,

I think the spirit of this picture makes it an amazing tribute to Steve Jobs whose life was just like this - a stunning contrast of bright light and looming shadow. Fantastic view. Thanks for sharing.

Best regards,
Marina

Hello Dale
Looks familiar when I went round the Highlands, also resembles Otago in New Zealand with the autumn colours and threatening weather. Scene and colours are the making for the image, the sharpening looks bang on.

The yellow is emphatized by the low sun, I suppose... You chose a magic moment to shot, great timing. Wonderful.

macjake (98486) 2011-10-07 13:54

Hi Dale
I can see why people are liking this photo in your gallery.
its all about the lighting and colors!
the fg creates a luminous start to the scene, which contrasts the dark sky above.
the little island in the middle is a cute addition.
nice shot
cheers

Hello,

Nice landscape shot, It gives the wish to go there and to take photos or to enjoy hiking. I like the light, even if perhaps the white balance is a bit toward yellow tones, but this difference of light between the foreground and the mountains in backgroun gives a good contrast and impact to the view. With the clouds, it is like being in a Tolkien book.

Yves.

korbee (6619) 2011-10-08 12:15

Wauw Dale,I think mr Jobs can be proud of you with such a beauty,superbe example of sunlight,I think THE vital part of photography.
You have a good nose for light and position Dale.

Thanks.

adramad (73030) 2011-10-13 9:46

Hi Dale.
A very beautiful composition, I love the color contrast between the golden-green in the foreground, giving us the meadow and the trees, the gray tones of the mountains and sky, the light also produces this effect of contrast, which gives a magnified image. Well done.
Best regards.
Luis.

Juzo (2151) 2011-10-24 4:49

Hi Dale,
This has such an eye catching division of colour and light, it is almost like nature's own diptych. Great timing to capture this, and a beautiful, serene looking place too.
Cheers
Justin

HI Dale!

Beautiful scenery! Nice warm tones, lighting and colors. The grey and aggressive sky is a beautiful contrast to the ambient mood, it gives a different character to the photo too. Great shot!

All the best,
matt

Hi Dale

Steve Jobs taught you the computer? Personally? You're kidding right? Wow, I wan to hear more. Anyway, o your photo. What a beautiful dedication it is to this genius tragically taken away from us too young. The colours are amazing, as is the light. And of course the place is hauntingly beautiful. Great shot.

Have a good weekend
Lisa

WELL DONE Dale Rys,
Some over sharpness and saturation IMHO.

Hi Dale!
Magnificent photograph! Colors are truly amazing, you managed to get great lighting conditions. Clouds in the background add to dramatic effect. Perfectly sharp island in the center looks almost unreal.
Congratulations!

Jarek

serp2000 (47063) 2012-07-08 10:03

Hi, Dale,

I think this is one of your best photos on the TE. Superb! My congratulations! I really like this autumn composition with the strong north colours and heavy grey sky. Impressive combination. TFS!

Best wishes from Russia!

Hi Dale. Glorious autumn colours, mellow light and beautifully harmonious palette. That patch of white in the cloudy sky illuminates the scene and adds touches of highlights upon the yonder hills. Nice timing. Regards. Klaudio.

Hi Dale
That is an incredibly beautifully lit view. It's of course a fine landscape but the light really is the magical aspect for me. It seems so strange and cool that this stormy active Sky is in place with such a warm welcoming light. Really nicely done
Cheers
Noel

Hi Dale,
Wow ! Great contrast between the sunny grass and trees in the forefround, and the dark, cloudy hills in the background, is absolutely stunning ! The little islands in the lake are a real plus in the photograph.
Congtartulations.
