Landscape Layers by maggiemae

Landscape Layers

I think I recognised the photographic incentive of layers from this lovely evening scene, as I drove back home throughout the North Otago, NZ landscape in this light!

Three good things;
1 Waited for a good photo through the Book Club meeting but I am so nervous of being reprimanded for taking a photo with a “ serious” camera that I didn’t. However others with their tiny phone cameras were totally accepted.
2. Looking for a good photo on the way home through Easter traffic got me in a tizz - I didn’t want to hold people up who were in such a hurry to get somewhere! Good thing - I wasn’t!
3. My camera gives me confidence!
Love ths scene, beautiful layers.

@happypat Thanks for your comment, Pat - I see you did too on FB! The light was just right to separate the hills from the mountains in the background so yes, just had to stop and brave the Easter traffic roaring past me!

Oh, such a lovely shot. The layers and light make this a luminous shot. There are so many different versions of "green" which really add visual complexity. Nicely done.

My word maggiemae ...TT how good is that! Many congratulations but this lovely photo of your gorgeous country deserves every accolade!
April 17th, 2015  
@happypat thanks a heap, Pat! I think I've had only 3 in TT but thats pretty good considering I don't have a DSLR! I had a number of ex Otago-ites remark on it!
April 17th, 2015  
@maggiemae I have never had even one in th TT so I think it's a remarkable achievment! I would have been shouting from the rooftops but you never said a word......amazing restraint on your part!
April 17th, 2015  
@happypat Well, I do feel that there are some amazing photographers out there and I'm just an amateur! Just lucky on this photo!
