A polarizing filter made a big difference here.

Canon SX50. Topaz Simplify and Picasa "play" for a more painterly feel.

No critique--I just love them. I'm very partial to rural scenes. Well done. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Pretty hard to critique these, Linda. You've captured some classic landscapes. I like them all but would like to know the story behind the boot. Fast escape. :D

Thanks so much, Earl, I appreciate your kind words. We do have "rural" in central Washington :)

LOL - there were actually 4 or 6 boots on consecutive fence posts. A mystery, for sure :)

Thank you so much for viewing and commenting, John.

Great set Linda and love the boot shot, Washington State is just so interesting, you have every type of terrain you can imagine.

Thank you, CJ. I really appreciate your kind words.

And I also try to appreciate the beauty I'm in the midst of. One of the things that struck me, first time driving from Seattle to Yakima, was how varied the landscape is in such short distances, compared to Maine or other places I've lived.
