In the first photo I like the color of the sky and the background view, but I like the second photo better because attention is drawn more to the tree rather than the background and the color is nicer. I think the background with the darker green may have an effect on the red, too. The sun was setting to the right and that may be why the sky is so light on that side in the second one.
Beautiful location! Funny that just by changing the angle and background you have made it look like a different tree! I wonder how this would have worked as a portrait instead of landscape (just turning the camera or cropping what you have shot)?
ReplyDeleteLorelei this is really a gorgeous shot and a good study in getting closer to the object. Love the blue sky and blue spaces within the tree of the top one...
