The Watchman

[Ben Egbert]

I found this Watchman image amongst the old images and had probably passed it by for lack of color in the sky, but the composition color on the Watchman and trees is superior to any other Watchman image I have.

Hey Ben, a great image doesn’t need color in the sky.

What this has is an awesome gradiation of light from right to left that compliments the ground so well. This is a really great photo!

Very nice image Ben even with no clouds. I might try boosting shadows a tad bit though.

The trees more than make up for the skies - very nice shot. I agree with Jameel on boosting the shadows a bit.

I agree w/Jim. This has its own mood & some great Fall colors. I have one very similar but I like this better

You certainly got peak fall foliage, Ben. No pesky, distracting clouds.........

Follow the leader. From 2019 found and processed during my image clearout. Still 2 years of files to go. Ken

Thanks Jim. I have always put lots of emphasis on sky color, and need to rethink that.

Thanks Jameel.

Ben, with or without clouds, this is a beautiful shot, the side-lit cliff face accentuates the shape.

Terrific image. I have tried hard to find anything that I would try and improve and happily failed. Ken

You have such beautiful soft tones here, Ben.

Very nice light and composition. There are a bunch of small dust bunnies visible in the sky.

Good eye, I will need to go look for them.
