Landscape I'm a little bit country!!!

**Tonytee** · 05-03-2016, 08:09 PM

A decent shot of country life. I am aware that the top of the chimney was cut off, however, it does not show it that way in the thumbnail gallery. Enjoy and thank so much for looking.

You were cool then and you are now very cool.

I like the shot. I know where this house is and used to drive by it every month or so. The bluebonnets make it a great Texas scene.

Thanks very much Pam. That means a lot to me as I ended up building this house right after the fighting was over at The Alamo. In fact, I received many medals and citations for my actions above and beyond the call of duty.

Have you cropped this? It feels a bit too tight with the chimneys cut off and the cow on the bottom right is to close to the edge for me.

I don't mind the way you have framed this but the image feels a little over processed (HDR?). It feels like everything is trying to pop out at you.

**kiwi_jono** · 10-28-2019, 06:28 PM

I agree 100% with Matthew. Lovely scene and nice composition. It just feels either a bit oversharpened or over contrasted.
That said a lot of people like a photo "on edge" from what looks real - so in the end you should run with what you like.

Agree with these comments. As one who is sometimes "guilty" of over processing, I find the best thing to do is process save and then come back a few hours later and review. It is too easy to get caught up in the process and lose sight of the overall effect.

Actually, by the looks of things, I would say that it is a bull.

This image was shot just about three and a half years ago. I think I have learned a thing or two since then.

Thanks,

As far as capturing the image, I think you did as well as you could with the light that you had. It is a lovely scene but grey skies and grey light all around.

I agree that taking a step back on the processing would probably enhance the picture but otherwise nicely done.

The Squirrel Mafia · 11-05-2019, 09:35 AM

Love the colors in this image.

800rate · 11-24-2019, 02:12 PM

Oh, I love the wildflowers. beatiful shot

It looks a little overprocessed for me like others said already. And I would turn around the bull, to look inwards.

I like the captured mood.
