Impressive colors! I like it!

Beautiful composition from the red dirt to the washed out blue sky that is so real. The dead scrub in the centre ties all the parts together, so well done

Hi Wanda

I like it.

Interesting colours here Wanda, but I think you overdid it a bit with the flash, and the sky is over-exposed.
As you were using flash to illuminate the foreground, setting the camera to expose for the sky would have given you a better result.
I also think you should have set the flash to under-expose slightly, as the effect on the plants in the foreground is a little overpowering.
An interesting technique, but I don't think it's quite worked in this case.
Cheers,
Ben

Wow, fantastic. I love how you took this shot, the colors of earth changing. The bush standing out. Great

Hi Wanda: simply beautiful! Amazing landscape!
The read color of earth is fantastic: is it natural or did you saturate it with photoshop?
Very good shot.

Wow, colors are fantastic!!
Beautiful capture.

This is a Great Job Wanda, Very nice deep orange color of soil. We can see the same color on The Ayers Rock.
I also love the diversity of colors in bushes around.
TFS and Best Wishes,

Hi Wanda,

This one was on your introduction page and it just catch my attention.

Although the flash is visible in the foreground, it blends interestingly with the natural ambiant light. The colours are absolutely "aussie" and so is the vegetation. I like the use of the foreground, to introduce the Olgas.

Cheers!

André
