somehow, i notice overexposurenes on your sky, but when i scrolled downwards to see the land, everything was excellent. very nice POV. and the way you took the perspective view is quite interesting. if only there was more haze on the further back view, it would surely give a mysterical feel to your shot!

warm greetings from Sabah,

Hi Bev, I really like the POV on this one, you've captured the wall snaking off into the distance really well - something I was trying to achieve on some shots I took the other day. I love drystone walls!

Another lovely capture. I like the texture and colours within the wall, a very peaceful scene.

Very good diagonal composition, and nice green mossy colours!
Yes the sky is a little over-exposed on the top right, but I don't think it maters much, and the black frame helps to keep it all together.
Cheers
Brian

Hi.
Nice wall Bev, snaking away to the distance, in reasonable repair and with lots of spare parts lying around. I wonder how many wee creatures live in it, hundreds probably. Good close detail. Thanks.
Dougie.

Hi Bev. A great shot with lots of potential. Do you have a ND grad filter? For me, this shot is crying out to have the sky darkened by 2-3 stops and I'm sure there'd be a lot more detail up there. Also, one other (minor) point - the black plastic bag right at the foot of the shot is a bit of a distraction. If you get the chance to re-shoot, please do as I think your composition is excellent with the dry-stone wall leading off into the distance. Kind regards, Paul.

Hi Bev,

I love this landscape the colours are so nice an autumnal.

Not sure if thats a bin liner in the forground? I think I might have been tempted to crop it out, other than that its a fab photo.
