I like how this image "whispers" spring with a few pops of colour. Is it level though? Check that bridge in the background it looks slanted to the right a touch. This photo leaves me with a feeling of wanting to be there, to breathe in the fresh air....looks like nature is waking up. Delightful.

Bless you. How do they get potatoes to the city nowadays? I also like the balanced feel to this photo...the sky and the pond.

Thanks for that....appreciate your talking to me.

Hey, I'm traveling in a country where women still carry wood on their heads and tea sacks on their head as well.

Wow how wonderfully vast is this image and one could do a lot of walking on a sunny day. I think if you had followed the horizontal cut rule of photography you would have a stronger photograph with more impact on the dunes. Cutting an image in half like that makes it a little less exciting visually....however, rules are for fools as they say and this may have been your artistic choice. A bit more contrast would have highlighted the dunes...the bends and shadows. I like the gentle pastel colour palette....a gentle photograph. Very nice.

2/3 and 1/3 is "old school" think I'm giving myself away. Here is more information for you http://www.mujahidurrehman.com/the-rule-of-thirds-in-photography/

Yes, your third is not a real third...but hey, I always bow to artistic prerogative.

.......and I thought I was hallucinating. Yeah, don't you like it better too?

I like the way you considered your composition with the path staying true to the rule of 3's. Can you see you have a tilt of the horizon line to the L you need to take down this photo and straighten it. Also, look in the bushes on the L side (viewer's left) can you see you have clipping or block up. Block up is the opposite of blow out except it is black and you have lost all detail...it is black. That is due to exposure calibration. Are you shooting on A mode or M mode? If you switch to manual you will have much more creative power over your camera. The photo is really nice and exudes a place of peace, and that would be paradise for me.

You managed to catch all the sparkling diamonds, including the pretty one smiling back at you. A wonderful memory photo that will hold a special place in the family album.
