Murray River, a photo from South Australia, West

Photographer's Note

Between Waikerie and Murray Bridge the Murray cuts through arid flatlands. The small towns along its banks are popular in the summer as people try to escape the intense heat.

Traveling with a friend who was revisiting places of her youth, I was surprised to find a small area with dairy farms.

It's the river that gives this area life. But it's the over use by people that threaten its life.

Hi!
Nice picture with good colors making a fine contarst to each other and nice depth.....
I would have made a frame and chosen a foreground (for example bush or tree).....
But nice work,
Jonas

Hi Nichola,
Beautiful landscape and you've wonderfully captured the scene. Nice converging curves ... I like the effect of the river dissapearing in the horizon. Color and image quality is also very good. In my opinion, the 'rule of thirds' would further enhance the composition. Anyway, this is a very good composition as is. Well done! tfs
Cheers,
Renier
