This is what I'd call a good background shot.
It has a nice atmosphere but is missing a subject like a tractor, a cow, a naked virgin, a meteor crater ...
I still like it - I like emptiness at times ...

What's this picture about, Tony?
Pictures don't have to be "about" objects. And no, really good landscape pictures aren't about light, atmosphere, a sense of place, the lie of the land. . . or "line." Really good landscape pictures are about a transcendental experience you get from all of those things as they momentarily come together in a way that "means." Good landscape pictures are always about something.
What's this picture about, Tony?
Do you always demand of photographers (or if you like, people with cameras) that they explain what their pictures are about?
I like the image, but also understand the critique.
So I allowed myself to unleash some of the potential I see in it.

So let's see some of your "Look at me! Look at me!" stuff.

So let's see some of your 'transcendental' stuff first.
To receive a transcendental experience from any art you have to be receptive, Tony. If it doesn't happen to you, the fault isn't with the art.
Weird, Chris. I built a pretty comprehensive web log analyzer, so I know both sites get a large number of hits every day. Something may be going on with your provider. Try it again: www.fineartsnaps.com and www.russ-lewis.com. They're both mine and both have photographs.
Yep. I had you cut off. Evidently the whole 82.82 URL series was giving me a problem at one point or another. It's fixed now.
