This a bold composition and I think we need to remind Bob that High does not equal Max! :-) Indeed the challenge thread provides links to articles that explain exactly why this fits the challenge perfectly. I love the strong contrasts of the foliage and the trunks. Regards -Najinsky

Lovely atmospheric shot. It looks like infrared.

Bob,

Thanks for the criticism. As a complete amateur, I am just thrilled with having a chance to show and take criticism from others whom I have complete respect. I am just adhering to your main rule of "just have fun" here. But, I do invite comments from all whether they be positive or negative.

This is a beautiful image Binh. I love the subtle shades and those beautiful leaves that contrast against the deeper tones of the bridge.

For this challenge you probably could push the contrast a little more or perhaps add some vignetting or both but it would change the character somewhat I feel.

The topic does leave interpretation up to individuals so please feel free to disregard my suggestions, I am just thinking of the phrase " ... how far can you go without going to extreme".

Beautiful composition Binh, thanks for posting ~ Regards Melbob
