That....and the ability to see through those magnificent lenses we also know as eyes. I think these two illustrate perfectly the way light is probably the most important element in photography.
Great pictures Peter, needles to say I like the last one best.

Am I in the minority in prefering the first one then? I like the subtle colours, and the mountains look much nicer to me in that one.
The tighter framing works better for me too.

The composition works better I agree & the mountains look far better, but the barn is just too flat.Am I in the minority in prefering the first one then? I like the subtle colours, and the mountains look much nicer to me in that one.

Pity you didn't stay still Peter, as a composite would have been a stunner.

I like them both but prefer the first and were it mine I'd dodge the foreground and make it even darker and flatter.

Dan, we all know that you see things differently . It must be that long hair of yours and the fertile imaginative mind. You were the one who started me on seeing images on my smokes

Probably? No; definitely (IMHO).At the risk of boring you all to death with my trip pictures, I think these two illustrate perfectly the way light is probably the most important element in photography.
Nice images. I prefer the former, but only by a small margin. Dawn and dusk are the best times of day.

Both pleasing but there is, imo, more atmosphere in the first and therefore more interest, it captures that breathless moment before the sun arrives and bleaches everything.
