Very amazing image! I just got back from eastern washington going to try this my next visit. I like the corner shot, with the road travelling into the countryside..nice work!

Hello Alex, I like the concept of your image. The fields and landscape are so vast that it gives me an other worldly feel. I think the sharpness and exposure are right on and I like the B&W rendering. To my eye the composition is not ideal, I would like to see a little more on the left and less on the right. I also find the near merger of the corner to the bottom of the image to be distracting. That being said I do think that you did a fine job with this subject.   Posted: 11/07/2024 16:27:35

First a question -- what does this data in the upper right mean: 120' ISO 102 1.9 ? And why did you use an ND filter?

With my questions out of the way I felt the corner in the lower left was too close to edge. And the middle just seems too empty.

Since I live near there the shot does show the agricultural areas in northern Oxnard vey nicely. Next summer a VCF entry in the "Agriculture" category?   Posted: 11/11/2024 00:54:41

I am in a new endevor 52 Frames. That week was panoramama. I did not have the time or light to do much better. I like the idea I hope to do better on my composistions next time also better light. Not flying that much lately The numbers are camera settings 120' elevation ISO 102 and 1.9 app. 6.7mm and 1/400ss the ND filter was for the sun setting and to try and get some clouds.   Posted: 11/11/2024 02:02:12

Pattern, angles, interesting lines are really appreciated in photography, specially in BNW. I see that the lower part of the angle could use a bit more room, just a minor details.
Sharp details.
