    Hmmmm....my eye keeps getting drawn to the bright center; I want to look around the image and see something else, but it's too dark elsewhere and my eye keeps going back to that bright center. Maybe more light (emphasis) on the two tree trunks; and I would like to see that little branch in the image center that crosses over the shadow lightened up quite a bit as well to make it pop out.

    Sam,

    While you've done your technical job well with this scene, IMHO, this is just one of those scenes that due to the lighting mainly, draws a photographer's eye to it, but has no particularly interesting subject.

    Sam,

    I agree with Randy. My brain can't find the subject. And the bright spot draws my eye and it gets stuck there. But there are great details in the rocks. Perhaps give it a big crop and just concentrate on the shadows and the rock details on the left or right.

    My eyes wander. I can't find anything to focus on. I wonder how it would do cropped as a square, with the tress directly in the center, and converted to black and white, almost abstract like.

    I am simply wirtting what I think, which often times doesn't hold much weight. :) Cheers!

    Thanks guys!!!

    I am not sure why but I seem to be drawn to the image. Might be the play of light and shadow.

    Nice to have good honest feed back..................

    For me the subject is faces... Lots of interesting faces! Including one with an eyepatch in the upper left!

    Right up my alley. thumb.gif
