These colorful swirls at White Pocket put me in mind of candy.

Here are three, same place, different times and compositions.

It’s certainly an amazing place that can lookso cool any time of day. It’s like you are in a candy factory.

Not sure that I can pick a favorite. Maybe #2.

Are these from your recent trip there?

 

[Ben Egbert]

Thanks Jim, yes, this is from my trip 2 weeks ago.

Neat set of shots Ben. The reflections are delightful. I like both #1 and #2 and decided not to favor one over the other - each has unique light and a great reflection.

Great work Ben, I definitely prefer number 2 - to me, it strikes the best balance between composition (is the one where the reflected peak have the best placement, IMHO), sky (most interesting clouds) and colour palette (best tones in the shadows, IMHO) of the three Best regards,

Great job, Ben. All are excellent but #1 and #2 are the best to me.

 

[Kyle Jones]

Nice set Ben, I'm glad you found some nice conditions!

 

[Jim Dockery]

Sweet set Ben, I'll be the odd man who votes for #3.

Thanks Vieri, and thanks for the comment, very helpful and I am starting to agree. I wish I had opened up the FL a bit and gotten more breathing space top and bottom.

Thanks Douglas, I am tending to agree.

Thanks Kyle, I did. It was great being out there.

Thanks Jim, thats why I included it, it has it's own charm.

Wow Ben, well seen and captured! I am torn between 1 and 2 - like the light in 1 a little more, but the sky in 2 a little more. Both are great, as is the 3rd one. Lovely composition with the reflection placement in all 3.
