Maxim of Ohio thought on 10/30/2005 that this photo was okay and added the following:
"I would step to the right and turn a bit to the left - so the bush will move to the left of the picture and the larger peak a bit to the right. I don't like them being almost aligned along a vertical line, I would prefer them to form a diagonal. Personal taste. :)" 6392

"I like both the color and the depth of field in this photo. I can almost smell the sweet scent of dacying leaves on the forest floor." 3893

"I've Hiked Mt Timp 3 times and it is the most spectacular view in Utah. Also Snowboarded it 2 times in winter by far the biggest visiting spot in Utah. Swede Steven Andersson" 6031

Bruce Wilson thought on 7/14/2001 that this photo was good and added the following:
"Shots like this is why I always carry a 24mm wide-angle lens. You may have noticed that most shots in magazines like National Geographic are shot with wide-angle lenses. These lenses give a very nice sense of both subject and surroundings. Just remember to keep these rectilinear lenses pointing exactly horizontally to prevent convergence." 2984

Bruce Wilson thought on 4/19/2001 that this photo was 'interesting' and added the following:
"It is a macro shot (using a 25mm extension tube), and using the angle finder. Angle finders are essential for getting shots that most people don't see, because you can get your camera in odd locations (on the gorund looking up) and using the finder still see what you're shooting. Were I to do this again I's stop down a little more and keep everything in focus. Most macro photography has a depth of field problem. I think it's usually done to keep the background fuzzy. It's much better to stop down then remove the background with black velvet . With an angle finder you get sky in the background, and fuzzy sky is still sky. This shot was done on a tripod (set very low), but I had to keep the shutter speed high because the wind was blowing and moving the subject." 3310

Bruce Wilson thought on 4/7/2001 that this photo was okay and added the following:
"I guess by now you've seen I like the play of deep shadow on objects illuminated by the evening sun. This is an old road grader (used mostly for snow removal, I suspect). Some depth-of-field problems, but nice colors." 3471

Bruce Wilson thought on 4/7/2001 that this photo was good and added the following:
"South Dakota, due to the extremely flat land here, has the most wonderful evening light. Rich in color but still quite bright, the light just before sunset is the photographers 'majical 20 minutes'. Take a juned old tractor, wait for the light, and you get a pretty-good picture." 3418
