It looks a bit too unreal and artificial for my tast Bruce !

Very interesting treatment Bruce. I have no problem with this, perhaps the subject matter is a little busy, considering that you have also used a special technique? Infrared" on top of the busy shot. How about more of this with some simpler subject matter, perhaps Macro? Keep at it. Good stuff.

Hey sorry about the triple posting Bruce, But I did not find Dick's comments constructive or a critique, just personal taste which is just that, and Hell that's never stopped me. Again keep at it Bruce and the image that you are meant to shoot with this technique will come forth.

Cluttered

Hello Randall...yes, agree that the image is far too clutered. I have an Oly C-2000 coming that should enable hand held Infrared shots, so should be able to more quickly clarify the composition than when tied to a Tripod.

Thanks for your input.

Ok, Radall is right - my statement was not constructive but I hope you accept that I add some personal thoughts I have looking at this foto a second time ! The scene and golden colouring strongly reminds me on an old french "Gobelin" or even to a foto from the early days of fotography with aged colors ! And it assembles the mood I associate with some fairy tales from 200 years ago ! If something like that was your intention (or not) you could give this artwork a title suporting fantasies ....

Hello Dirk....yes, sort of looks like an illustration for a Children's book. Guess why I liked it was....the fact that it does not look like it was taken in Colorado where there is not an 'abundance' of vegatation. Thanks for the comment...
