#2 is great


Thanks. It an old burr oak near Columbia, MO. It's around 350 years old and huge. A car could almost hide behind the tree.

When Judy's 'Creative Landscape' came up on the calender, I figured that I would sit this one out. Then my 'imp' spoke to me. Some people have muses; mine is something quite impish.

The offering below is not meant as a serious entry to be compared to those posted by serious landscape artists. It's basically a concept piece for which my attention was focused on texture and form, a practice run of sorts. That's why you see wide stripes in the sky.

This was just a notion that I started playing with a couple of decades ago, and, then forgot about.

The top pic is a panorama of a golf course, made with 20-some stitched panels that span about a 160 degree turn. It's aspect ratio is 10:1.

To get the 'Dr. Seuss' look of the bottom pic, I resized to the Golden Ratio (1.618:1). Actually, 8:5 is close enough for government work. Any ratio that mashes the horizontal and stretches the vertical will do.

So, with this narrative I hope that the picture is explained.

It's great to be able to preserve beautiful landscapes through creative photography!

Digital Photograph School has an informative piece on " Surefire Landscape" and tips.

I'll start this Challenge through Dane since I'll be flying back from Ca. Sunday night.

A BIG thank you to Dane for all he does for us!


All three very, very nice.

I've submitted this on other threads but it's one that I like so here it comes again.
This is a view of Diamondhead as seen from the grounds of a mansion that belonged to the late Doris Duke on Oahu.
