About the Image(s)
The picture was taken in June last year. I stopped by this barn because this barn looks different from the typical barns of the Palouse. The blue sky and the rolling hills behind the barn created a vivid contrast. The camera settings are Sony a7rIIIa, Sony 24-105mm, 84mm, f/8, 1.2000 sec, ISO 200.

A very peaceful image Peter. It brings a mood of calmness to me due to the minimal number of elements here. The colour palette
is easy on the eyes with just enough details in the clouds and the grass.   Posted: 10/11/2024 22:34:42

A lovely image of the Palouse - I'd love to capture a shot like this. It's such a great scene and you have all the ingredients so I tried to single out the barn and draw more attention to the subject. As shot, I feel the bright sky that comprises about 2/3 of the image fights with the barn for attention. I cropped in to eliminate much of the sky because I didn't think it added to the scene, then in from the right to place the subject on a powerpoint. I increased contrast, texture and changed the temperature of the sky towards the blue and added vibrance throughout - I'd love your thoughts on my modifications   Posted: 10/12/2024 04:19:13

Beautiful image Peter! The gradual hills and beautiful green grass interspersed to create a feeling of a peaceful landscape. And the barn offset against those rolling hills make it pretty close to a perfect, peaceful image.   Posted: 10/13/2024 00:59:03

Peter, I like the overall composition with the position of the barn and the hills around it. The colors of green, brown and blue sky provide good contrast. I would probably crop the sky a bit or darken the blue and add some highlights to the clouds to get more interest there. I've not been to the Palouse and your image adds to my interest to travel there.   Posted: 10/26/2024 18:02:01
