Nice sunset shot -- the red of the flags shows up nicely!

The lines of national cemeteries present a noble and stirring site. Great use of the light.

Thanks for the comments. I thought the sunset added a bit of somber to the scene.

Nice pattern, but I must say that I prefer the second shot you posted here. In the first one the foreground looks too bright for the sky, the sloping horizon is a bit distracting, and I'd prefer to see a bit more space above the cacti (they're pushing against the top of the frame now).

In the second shot the light looks much more balanced and natural, and I like the backlit flags and foreground trees.

Hope that makes sense.

I prefer the 2nd as well. Thanks so much for the critique; really appreciate showing what I need to do. I actually do have one that is not cropped and strait. thank you again!

Much prefer the second version (though it could use a smidge of CCW rotation) -- thanks for reposting!
