Green and Red Photo

Photographer’s Note

Another capture of neighborhood landscape. This little pool and a small barn exist amidst busy intersections and active residential area right next to I-75. Picture does not express any noise around however the view is spectacular. I drive by this place a numerous times and wanted to capture this but never did. Last week I went there just to take a picture of it. This must be a private property located in Adams Road north of I-75 Interstate. It is well mowed and maintained but not owned by the neighboring residents. Some one takes good care of this refreshing atmosphere. That day air was very quite so I could work on the reflection very well. I had very few seconds to take this picture and I did not use any tripod. Just point and shoot. Except the powerline that is going in the background, this is one of the excellent caputures i ever did.

Beautiful photo. Really lovely colour in the image. Great reflection in the water too. It looks like a lovely area. TFS.

Rajesh it only takes a small amount of red to balance with green. And I can see you have a winning combination here. I love the pathway over the water and the barn in the distance. Somehow I think I saw this before somewhere. But for sure excellent results are posted here! Thanks for sharing!

The colors and the composition are great. What I learned during my short period at TE is that taking the main subject a little bit eccentric versus placing it right in the middle of the shot gives a very interesting twist. Try it out!

Hello Rajesh,
A very idyllic scenery, with the bright red barn and the picturesque calm waters!
Well composed image with great details, good diagonal and the elements balance nicely...

No doubt that the red cottage makes the picture. But there is also another element that captured my attention: the wooden foot-bridge. Along with the red cottage and the tree on the right it makes a nice triangle and that completely justifies you compo. Without these three elements I would say that the red cottage was in the wrong place. Very nice!
