Hi Karen,
A fine picture of a rural landscape. The pathh is leading the eye to the hut here and the jungle (?) in background. The cloud covering the top of the mountain looks fine, how high can that be?
Kind regards
Gunnar
PS I can´t see the reflections that "myskt" apparently can see...

Karen,

I miss this landscape scene--everything is so simple. The haze on the background makes me almost feel the humidity.

I agree with Gunnar. I can't see any reflections, either. ;P

Salamat Po,

Adrian

Hello Karen,
If there had been any reflections in this picture, I am sure they would have looked great :-)
Even without reflections, this is a fine picture where the narrow path leads me along the fields towards the distant village and the forest. The simple hut could be a substitute for an old Canadian barn.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hello Karen! Wonderful landscape. Very interesting small house. Marvelous mountain in the background. Mysterious mist. Well done!

Hi Karen

The elevated pathway through the rice paddies, provides a superb lead in line. Good sharpness & colour, showing the lush, tropical greenery. Tfs!

Hello Karen,
A lovely composition of this lovely countryside. The track is well placed to lead us towards the first focal point, the little hut and then onto the mountain background. I like the the sombre tones, which make for a particular atmosphere. Interesting contrasts between the sharp foreground and the mist covered mountains combined with a pleasing palette of brown and orange tones. Very well done.

Hi Karen
Nice saturated greens and browns in this shot. The pathway leads the eye to the shack and the laundry hanging on the line.

Hi Karen,
Beautiful tropical landscape with this tiny straw hut surrounded by lush green grass and lovely palm trees.
The mountain backdrop works well on this wonderful rural scene.
Regards, Tom

Hi Karen this is one of those scenes which have a universal appeal. Its been taken thousands of miles away yet it looks so much like India. The composition is nice
