Two great shots, but number two works best for me, the yellow flowers in the first one make my eyes go weird (or maybe weirder!) trying to focus. But love the mountains and pastel colours in two. Someone pass me a glass of red and some bread and cheese to sit and enjoy the view!

Thanks Roger.

This winter/spring we've had a lot of rain (relatively speaking) and the fields are covered in wild flowers. Normally they are uniformly brown

This is a 10 minute walk from our house

2 nice B&W's for routine, I like the scowl from the lady in the first, I think the second needs to be a little wider.

Pie very good idea, got a lot of people thinking.

I agree that #2 looks better to me. Lovely mountains in BG. #1 looks "bleached" to my eye, perhaps it's a quality of the light and that burst of yellow. Both of them make me feel hot just looking at them!

 

[SamuelSlade007]

i do prefer the 2nd one, the balance of sky and land works so much better, looks far to warm for me though

 

[brrnd]

I like #1, the yellow and green looks almost unreal.

 

[Allan.H]

No.2 for me just a better composition, lovely colours

 

[Fuji Dave]

No2 for me as well, like the bloke just following the road while looking at the attractive BG

 

[Hertsman]

Another vote for No2 here.....

 

[KernowChris]

And another for no. 2, where is it?

Hi John, that yellow is a very acid yellow and I was wearing sunglasses! You might have been a tad warm that day as it got up to 27 but the last 2 days it has been 9 and hissing down.

And it's only March

I like #1, the yellow and green looks almost unreal.

And it hasn't been tinkered with. It's the new foliage on the almond trees and the acid yellow of the wild flowers. Makes my eyes hurt

No.2 for me just a better composition, lovely colours

Thanks Allan

Cheers David

Another vote for No2 here.....

Thank you kind sir

 

[Bruja]

Thanks Chris.

It's Huercal Overa in Almeria and it's normally like this

 

[SamuelSlade007]

And it's only March

as the months progress i migrate further north...

 

[Bruja]

Aah, so you are really a polar bear

 

[Shirleyr]

Aah, so you are really a polar bear

I like them both but the flowers in photo 1 are outstanding.

 

[LC2]

You, young lady, are very naughty posting all these pictures of warm sunny weather while we're all shivering...
I *think* #2 for me, the inclusion of the sky does it.

 

[SamuelSlade007]

i saw THAT!

 

[d00d]

#2 ... great compo with mystery cartoon figure in road and big mountains!

the farm building thing LHS could go for all I care.

 

[Emja]

#2 for me too - great clouds and the road leading you on towards the mountains

Thanks Shirley, it's a most unusual display here.

Thanks Tim, and yes, I've seen your miserable weather in your last picture

If it's any consolation it was followed by two days of torrential rain with flooding in some areas and the temperature dropped from 27 to 9 from Sunday to Monday

Consider it done!

Thanks Emma, I do like a nice leading line

Dark by Bruja Jill, on Flickr[/URL]​

 

[Donnie]

On theme for sure and love the lighting on this, just the right angle to pick out the shape of the eyebrows nose and lips.

 

[Fuji Dave]

Dark, liking this shot Jill as imo it is very well taken with a good Dark BG but enough light on the mask, love the lighting around bits of the mask too

 

[Hertsman]

Oh nice, I think we have this weeks winner......
Love the lighting on that Jill.

Bang on theme and very well lit

[susiejb]

Love the lighting on this one Jill ...it gives a very spooky feel to it

 

[Allan.H]

Have you used this mask before? Its quite sinister especially the way you have lit it, so definitely dark In a couple of ways.

Thanks Paul and thanks for looking.
