Jaybe
What an amazing shot. The colours are wonderful.
Jason Connolly replied
Thanks Jaybe, I’m so pleased and so is Donna with your comments, cheers, glad you like it.
susan davies
well done donna, when is she joining redbubble then jase?
Jason Connolly replied
Thanks Susan, Donna says she’d love to join, when she has’t 3 kids to look after, meaning me and the boys LOL, she is cheeky LOL.
Donna says thanks for the lovely words, it’s made her smile.
Irene Burdell
Watch out Jason I can see you losing your camera , it is a lovely shot and great treatment.
Jason Connolly replied
I know Irene, I got palpitations when she phoned me at work this morning, she asked if she could take my camera, I had to sit down LOL, but I trusted her and she got quite a few nice results, including this one, She has got a future i can tell ya irene, glad you like it, I’ll pass on the comments to Donna.
Tom Gomez
Excellent picture, your wife has a good eye. The mointains in the backgound are stunning and really make this shot.
I know what you mean about the wife taking pictures. My wife has an 8.4Mpixel Panasonic. It is a tiny little thing but has a much better lens than most digital compacts. She takes some womderful picures with it (don’t tell her I said so).
Jason Connolly replied
she sure has Tom, I couldn’t believe the results she brought back, quite a few good shots in the bag I have to say, all will be shown in good time, I want her to geta little DSLR., another Nikon maybe, when funds allow, she just doesn’t get much time, she says.
Pleased you like the shot my friend.
I wont tell your wife either LOL.
Stevie Mancini
Sweet as dude, such a lovely shot. Great composition with the little girl leading down the lane and on to the Mountains in the backround. Donna has a good eye as you say, another RB member perhaps. Would love to see more of her work mate. Your HDR treatment is sweet as, as always mate!!
Sweet as,, chooo chooo!!
Jason Connolly replied
Thanks Stevie, so pleased you like my wife’s shot, gotta say she is loving all this positive attention, you wanna see the grin on her face right here LOL, She thought I was having a laugh when I told her she got so many good shots, she or I rather will be posting a few more in the coming days and weeks, hope you enjoy….
Oh And thanks for the compliment to me as well LOL
Hertsman
Jason – looks like you can find another hobby (lol). It seems to run in the family, your aptitude for photography.
Excellent shot and colour
Jason Connolly replied
Hertsmann, you may be right, she’s putting me to shame LOL, Seriously though, Donna is very interested in getting a bit more time taking shots, she said she enjoyed it so much taking pictures today while out in the lakes.
Glad you like the shot mate.
GerryMac
where is Donna’s page on RB Jason! LOL! excellent capture and amazing post work! you work ever well as a team! looking forward for some more collaboration from over there!
Jason Connolly replied
LOL, well Gerry, I think at this rate, she’ll have to have her own page LOL, She’s done a grand job, she’ll loved taking it, Thanks matey for the excellent comments on this shot, glad you like it..
Farmncamera
Donna…my advice is to buy your OWN…..and start snapping! You are wonderful…. Wish I could do as good as you have captured here! . Although I must give Jason a bit of the glory for the edit. Which is amazing in its self!!. There are just a few words to describe…. its stunning !
Jason Connolly replied
HEHE LOL Elaine, that’s what I said, she can get a DSLR for around £250 now, at the moment it’ll have to wait though, funds are extremely tight.
She’s done a great job, I would have been very proud to have taken this one be now I can be proud of her, I was excited at showing it off and the big smile on her face when I said this is REALLY GOOD!!, she will be very happy what you say Elaine..

Dennis Gay
G’day Jason,
You can give Donna a big 10/10 from me mate!!!!!
This is a great landscape and has so much going for it. The scene itself is jam packed with interest and fills the frame well, the composition is spot on, the lighting/exposure/processing have renderd a lovely scene and the great depth of field and focus have given it clarity and sharpness throughout.
A little girl in a puddle wearing pink just has to be a winner!
GB
Dennis
Jason Connolly replied
Hey hey Dennis mate, she’s over the moon with this image, and all the comments she has got on it too, thanks for the winning comments.
Laura S
Jason this is outstanding! Please tell Donna she has an ‘eye’ for this and I would love to see more of her work. Of course you get credit too for the hdr treatment. I like the water splash where she has stepped, it really adds to the mood of movement. The mountains are gorgeous. I will be coming back to this one from time to time to have a look..gosh I just love this picture. I wish that I could afford to buy it right now, perhaps in the near future. :)
Laura (aka naturelover)
Jason Connolly replied
Thanks Laura, really do appreciate all you say, thank you from Donna and myself for your wonderful comemnts and vist.
keleka656
Delightful image. Beautiful scenery and the pink color of the little girl’s coat is the icing on the cake. Good work Donna for the photo and good job Jason for your usual exceptional post processing.
Jason Connolly replied
Hiya Theresa, That is also what I like so much about it, the perfect timing and composition of the shot, the pink coat, the splash of the water of the girls shoes and the ripples, glad you like it too my firend.
Marvin Collins
Excellent work Jason…...it’s all been said!!
Marvin Collins
Beautiful composition Donna, great shot!!!
Jason Connolly replied
Both of us thank you for both of your comments mate, much appreciate the visit Marvin and glad you like it so much.
GailD
Ooh Jason. I think you may have lost your camera & your spot here on RB.
A great image. Donna should be very pleased with herself. Oh & great processing too from you.
It’s very hard to lend your camera isn’t it. Like someone has asked if they can borrow your right arm.
Jason Connolly replied
Hiya Gail, I’m loving it, she’s done really well and brought homea great batch of shots, On the technical side of things such as shutterspeed and aperture etc and using the camera she can learn more not that this shot says anything negative about that but what I’m saying is She difinately has the eye for what to shoot which as you know is the main thing in photography, the rest can be picked up, thanks for the comments and yes it’s extremely difficult to lend out your camera, I’ve only ever lent it to Donna..
Rosalie Dale IPA
OK Jason move over, the ladies are coming!! Tell Donna this has made it to the 1st page of Most Popular of the Day – that is no mean feat!!!! You two make a great team … does she have a birthday coming up? You could always shout her her own camera!
Jason Connolly replied
Hi Rosalie..I have done already, well and truly pushed out of the limelight LOL, I’m proud of her, can’t wait to get her a camera, Have mentioned to her about getting one, as a Nikon D40 DSLR is dirt cheap at the moment, but she doesn’t want one yet as she feels she wont have time to learn how to properly use it, but I told her she can pick up the skills as she goes along. but will she listen to me??? LOL
She’s well pleased about getting to the first page of most popular.
Thanks my friend.
Irene Burdell
You know what to buy Donna for her next birthday or Christmas ,or even anniversary now , ,get her registered on RB. You are scared she might be better than you aren’t you ?:=))
Jason Connolly replied
LMAOROTF, HEHE, You reading my mind LOL, I want her to like it a lot more though and spend a bit more time on photography, she as always had an eye, When I am pocessing my piccies , she’’ be stood over me shaking her head saying no no, don’t like that one, bin that one, too much this..not enough that, I’ll say ‘get your own camera, mrs know it all’ LOL suddenly Joshua has been saying If I had a camera like Daddies, I would like photography too, I said,’when you stop taking piccies of my earhole and nose with your little camera when I,m on the comp trying to process my shots and start taking shots of proper things I’ll think about it LOL.
Thanks bud, we’ll see about getting her registered on RB, I have mentioned it but she is involved with so much, she says she hasn’t the time.
Lois Romer
Superb sot and all congrads go to your wife, she is a very lucky person to be able to borrow your camera.

I love this. Looks like a painting!
Bryan Peterson
You are correct Jason, your wife Donna has a wonderful eye for composition and subject—now that you have the D-300 I’m sure we will be seeing more of her well composed and wonderful images here a RB. She should be showing them off and be very proud of her wonderful work. Watch out though it looks like you are going to have a lot of competition at the Connolly household when it comes to your artwork!! Very well done Donna make Jason give you the camera more often.
Jason Connolly replied
You are right, there could be some competition here but Donna has just started a Nursing diploma at University, so all her spare time is caught up in study, but I’ll be trying push a camera in her hand at every available opportunity, and when she does those cracking shots I’ll be popping ‘em up here for all to see, cheers for the great comments Bryan..
mariarty
This is fantastic I love it, well done both of you.
Jason Connolly replied
Thanks Marie, appreciated.
eddiej
One of the best images I have seen for a long time..reminds me of the days when photographers started taking outdoor portraits..would have been a Kodak winner I am sure
Jason Connolly replied
Thank you so much, your words are so encouraging my friend, cheers again…Thanks for the visit..
Aussie
Hi Jason, being newish to redbubble I have just discovered your work. I love the feeling of all your pictures and this one for me has an almost fairy tale feeling. Your HDR work is inspiring. Thank you. Tom
Jason Connolly replied
Thanks Mate, Your words are encouraging and I am so glad you like my work, I tend to do most of my Landscape shots with skies and light like this the HDR way as it brings out more detail, if done the right way I think HDR can be of great use, there are still a few shots in my gallery done by the conventional way of digital processing.
This was shot by my wife, she has a good eye and the rest of it is down to me..
Thanks Tom..
Brendan Schoon
Fantastic shot Jason!! You’ve composed this picture perfectly. The little girl is really adding an extra dimension to the overall shot!! The lighting and the colors are truly amazing and very interesting!! The clouds are very looking very dangerous. Great shot, very well done.
Brendan
Jason Connolly replied
Thanks brendan, I’ll pass on the compliments to my good lady who took this shot when on a walk while I was working, I just wish I had been there instead, can’t say I would have seen the same as her.
Cheers mate, appreciate the fine visit mate.
