Framed and Shot from Houston, United States

Leading the eye into the frame. It is perfectly balanced towards the peak and draws us in. At first we thought "too centered" but after looking at it for a while, we changed our mind. Great shot.

k@ from Paris, France

Est-ce qu'on a le droit de revenir ? ... Oui ! :)
J'avais envie de humer cette herbe secouée par le vent au premier plan, en m'étendant un peu dans ton si paisible paysage... sans crainte de la pluie. Bisous*

27 Sep 2009 9:22pm

@k@: Tu est toujours la bienvenue! Demain je poste la suite et tu vas découvrir qu'il faut ce méfier de cette belle herbe en premier plan, car en réalité elle pousse...dans l'eau du lac!

Line Lamarre from Chambly, Québec, Canada

Spectaculaire endroit et un cadrage délicieux. J'aime ce premier plan tout comme Karine, je me coucherais sur le ventre afin d'y poser ma caméra, près à capter ses montagnes. Bravo!
