Late afternoon at Maumee Bay

I love all of those flowers. I also like the clouds on the top of the frame.

Great light. I agree with Ken's comments but I keep searching for a main focus here... Maybe you could let the colorful flowers play a more dominant role here...?

Thanks for sharing,


Anders

The colors of the wildflowers are nice but I wish I could see them more. Looks like you were faced with shooting from a low level (like I am most of the time) when being higher would give a better view of the meadow. Have you tried climbing up to the roof of your car?? Probably not possible here since you probably hiked in. Oh well, just an idea.

hey laura

i don't want to see a "main focus" or more of anything. you've shown me quite a lot just like it is.

the dabbled clouds, the dabbled line of trees, and the dabbled spots of flowers are a wonderfull "main focus, especially when viewed against the simple featureless band of sky - a great sense of tension and energy.

light, color and texture also combine in an pleasing sense of place and time. having spent many an hour scuttling back and forth in northern ohio, i can say with some authority that this image really imparts a feeling of being there.

as is always my wont, i really appreciate the lack of apparent composition and technique - what i call unaffected and honest photography. in letting me see this for myself, you have shown me exactly what you wanted me to see.

great job dispite "wishing nw ohio was a little more scenic."

I guess if you live there, you eventually end up with a nice day like this Very nice shot!
