Wow your really lucky to live in such a great place.
I do think it would have been better though if you had straightened it or taken it where the ground was more level because you can see the ground sloping down.

Hmm, you are possibly right. But in all honesty the one and only place to get those trees in the forground is on a steep hill/

I actually like the slanted trees because it reveals what the terrain is like. The mountain in the horizon gives the shot the stability it needs. The only thing that I would suggest is maybe some richer colors in the trees and sky. The trees that reach the skyline seem to wash out. Other than that, I envy your view but would definitely need the allergy meds. Thanks for sharing.

I agreed with your suggestions Houston, so I brightened up the colors a touch
