Bristlecone sunrise...

From the Patriarch grove. I shot it horizontal but I think I prefer the vertical crop. Comments?

I prefer the horizontal...a better mood...I can get into the scene without the tree blocking my way.

I agree

Both of these are wall hangers! I think I prefer the vertical crop. The background layers become more a part of the scene to me.

I prefer the horizontal as well but I would crop some of the right side off to shift the tree to the right some.

Great image. Both crops are beautiful. My preference is the horizontal one.

I like the horizontal, too. But can you crop the tree out of the center of the frame?

Like so?



Not sure if I like it so much. The vertical is somewhat of an "in your face" silhouette but I'm trying to decide if that was the point. Haha.

Vertical for me

I do prefer the horizontal one myself but the very first image, not the cropped image you just posted.

Either V or H they are very nice pictures.

I like thevery first one; it's serene and dramatic at the same time.

the vertical crop....pull it back more? I prefer it with a bit more of the awesome colors....too tight on the tree

but then that's just nitpicking....excellent job!

OK, we have complete concensus: vertical/horizontal
