Almond Orchard in Bloom

[kamoore]

This photo was taken in an almond orchard in Clovis California late in the day when there was some nice light just starting. I'm wondering how the low angle and offset angle (not looking direclty down the center of the row) works.

Exposure: 0.6

I think the composition is great, but to me the grass looks a little unnaturally green...but that could just be because I've been in Korea for a long time and they don't have grass here...kinda forget what it looks like.

This is a really pretty picture and I like it a lot. I too wonder about the colours, though -- I can't quite put my finger on it, but maybe the browns of the earth and the tree trunks seem to be a bit too similar? To my very inexpert eye, the vanishing-point in the distance seems a little too central as well. But it's a beautifully tranquil scene!

The composition is just fine, and I think you picked a great time of the day to take this shot. You should be able to easily fix the coloring in photoshop or gimp. Don't have either one of those? Upload it to Picnik and edit from there.
