Forget all negative comments. This is an excellent submission. It's just yet another addition to my Wallpaper Master rotation. But it's definitely one of the many that I take extra time to look at. I love it.

Thanks y'all. I'm always trying to improve my work. All of your comments are appreciated. Alex

The wallpaper has been replaced with Stross Arts's fixed version.

You can download this fixed version here until the IFL file is updated. http://alexstross.com/photography/temp/cal1-1.jpg non-hdr version http://alexstross.com/photography/temp/cal1n-1.jpg

I'm a fan of the subtle use of HDR in this photo. Good work, and I look forward to seeing more of your future submissions.

"There is an old joke that the three most important things for a successful business are location, location, and location." -- bdwilcox I don't get the joke...?

Yeah I'd agree equally with Se7en and Barney. If you fixed that mix-up in the upper right hand corner I'd really like it. But like I said I do have some of the critiques that Barney has such as the drain pipe and grayness. Other than that, as a whole I really like it.

What I dislike are the piles of mud on the hill in the foreground, and the already mentioned drain pipe. it kills the picturesqueness. also it seems a bit undersaturated in a way that what should have been a gray background takes over the whole picture. also would have been a lot better had the watter been blue. this way it melts with the background. seems like a lot of critique, but overall i still like it. composition-wise it's a great shot.

Thanks, looks great on my desktop. I especially like the colors and level of detail from the HDR. rewind: What was the point of your comment?
-
bdwilcox: thanks of the recommendation. I just ordered a copy for amazon. I'm alway looking to improve my image quality. I have uploaded a artifact/fixed version of this.

If you're interested, the best book on photo composition is, hands down, Michael Freeman's "Image-Designing Effective Pictures". Of course, it's out of print, so you'll need to find it at a library, used book store, or auction website. I can't recommend it highly enough.

There is an old joke that the three most important things for a successful business are location, location, and location. Likewise, the three most important things to a successful photo are composition, composition, and composition. There is a reason that the masters like Ansel Adams, Edward Weston, Eliot Porter and John Sexton excel(led) at their art. Their composition is near perfect. This was most likely due to their use of view cameras which invert and reverse the image on the ground glass, making composition the primary concern in setting up a shot. It's an interesting way to view the world and a fun experiment if you can get your hands on a view camera.

Stross Arts said: "I understand where you are coming from about lack of a focal point but are wall desktop back grounds supposed to have a focal point?" I think a better question would be, "Are all pictures supposed to have a focal point?" The answer to that would be no, but most should. There are photos, like color or pattern studies, that don't have a "true" focal point, instead the color or pattern being the focal point that encourages the viewers eye to scan the picture. But most photos should have a composition that leads the viewers eye into the photo and gives their eye someplace to come back to as it wanders around the picture.

Thank you all for the constructive critisim. Se7en: I actual noticed the artifact right after I uploaded it. Will correct ASAP. bdwilcox: I understand where you are coming from about lack of a focal point but are wall desktop back grounds supposed to have a focal point? I'll mess with it a bit and post a link to a "fixed" version. brizkit: Thanks I really apprecate it.
