Hi, up there in Bonny Scotland. I've been around, just very busy work wise. New studio lights to arrive and assemble tomorrow :-) :-) . Oops, this is the Critique Section so better not dally. Actually, getting back to your picture - the mood is all the more appealing to me because of the lowering sky. That, along with those wide open spaces give the Scottish landscape such a haunted, lonely feel. Sort of desolate but in an appealing way (bit like some areas of Ireland). The boat defines the foreground too which enhances the overall depth for me. And the muted colours top it off :thumbup:

I'll take it as a good sign that work is keeping you busy (and not the neighbour's cats lol).

The depth in the shot was intentional. I knew that if the weather wasn't favourable I'd have to work what I had, and when I saw that lit-up glen I knew I just needed a foreground subject to work with. Eye-catching backgrounds and attention-grabbing foreground subjects can work well together. That's the good thing about landscapes - the whole shot is the subject :-) .
