this is intoxicating! a great shot, the only thing I think I would do is crop the sky down to a 1/2 inch from the mountians and make the frame more steached rectangler. The whole scene is awesome I like the blue tint of the trees and the blue/violet of the moutain ennhace thier magistity.

Comment from Mokapu
I love the mountains, and the colors but there is too much empty sky in the picture. If the sky just took up 1/3 of the picture you would be able to see the wonderful colors that the ground has to offer better.

Comment from MaureenS
This is an interersting and attractive landscape. I like the little dots of trees that are strewn across the horizon. They are very defined and add interest. The contrast of the blue mountains in the background to the brown earthy foreground is very appealing.

Fantastic image Low, wish I was there to see it. Yes we all need the escape factor in how lives and this looks like one of those. Composition, focus, framing, technique all well organized. Another great view from Low.

Nah...don't think the wine had anything to do with it. How can you not be intoxicated by the fantastic scenery that you get to photograph. Time for Tom to move out of Ohio.

Comment from pwscanlon
very nice, very abstract feel to this - you captured a great range of blues in the sky and mountains of the background, and I really like stark contrast of the green trees and grey scrubgrass (?) that also creates an interesting pattern in the foreground - excellent!

3 bottles of wine at the dentist....YA THINK. Well at least you were still able to stand and shoot a gorgeous shot. really breath taking, I can feel myself standing next to you and breathing in the wonderful, crisp, fresh air and then ... aaahhh.. Comes that whiff of the wine... What mountains are those?? Outstanding shot of such beauty.

Comment from gajnath
Superb beauty of God's country. The scene is absolutely intoxicating!! All that open space to roam on your own...I can understand exactly what you are saying, Debbie. So that is what the dentist uses when he sees you a comin' :) Need the wine just to keep you caged in city...Lowrider sings..."DON'T FENCE ME IN."
