A tighter crop off the sides and top would remove the steam that competes with the bison. The two large bison looking toward the juvenile becomes a different but more focused image IMO.

Like all your work this is beautifully done. My eye keeps getting pulled up to all the bright bald sky at top, so I (perhaps alone) would crop off the 1/4 of the image just above the tree line to put more emphasis on the chapel and foreground. Just my thought.

Your encyclopedic knowledge of the area informs your beautiful photographs. I hope you are enjoying your retirement and continue to show us the beauty of Ootah.

Beautiful. Is this a pano? How many individual shots?

You might want to investigate AdobeStock and Shutterstock. Don’t expect to get rich, but you will validate the quality of your work. I also use Alamy and Istock/Getty.

I am happy with this blazingly fast computer when running Topaz Denoise and Focus. I am replacing it because I need a simpler more transportable system to accommodate my travels.

PM me for additional details.

The color images shows us what the ravages of time has done. The black and white emphasizes lines and shapes and is an equally compelling image. I love them both and would hang them both in one frame so the viewer can compare and enjoy each for its own merit.
Thanks for allowing us to share your vision.

please name them.
Thanks

In our culture we read left to right. Stand at the curb and nearby traffic moves left to right. Stand at first base line or third base line and runners move left to right. Stand at the race track finish line and horses move left to right. So we are accustomed to seeing motion left to right and it is argued that this “feels” more normal and makes the image more appealing. But ultimately it is your image, your choice.

The tenacity of the vegetation in the l/r of #8 will be required by all to repair the damage done by the flooding. Great shots in a difficult place and time.

Looks like the osprey has two, not one fish.

These trees are at the Long Island Museum and are quite an attraction,They are beautiful when seen in person rather than in a photo.

quote=mvetrano2]There is a tree on route 25A in Stonybrook, Long Island that is covered in a knitted blanket that is very colorful. It must have taken the knitters a very long time to complete this task, and it is just beautiful. These were taken several years ago, but the tree still stands and is still beautifully embroidered.[/quote]

Where the clouds moving so that there were no clear edges to stitch at?

Sorry to differ, but this is a male house finch.
