Dennis Gay IPA, about 1 year ago

G’day Hans,
I really like the way you have captured the light painting highlights along the curves and crests of that rolling landscape.
Your composition is very good indeed as is your exposure, depth of field and focus.
The colour rendition is beautifully saturated and the subtle detail in the grass helps bring the scene to life.
Lovely work mate!
God bless you and yours,
Dennis

What a gorgeous image. I love the richness of colour. The grandeur of the hills makes the house/barn seem so small, it is almost engulfed by the landscape. I love it.

Superb landscape image. The Rolling Hills bordered with crescents of light gives the image almost a three-dimensional appearance. beautiful shades and hues of green. The lonely white cabin serves as a wonderful scale and as a focal point. This is an instant favorite for me.
