Default Nature's Flair/Flare

So I was at a cookout last night and I got a really nice landscape (well, I think it's nice). It's my first attempt at a landscape, anyways. The only thing I don't like is that you can see some lens flare.

Landscape NA

Putting the lens flare aside you have composed this well. Landscape can be fun, especially if you can merge fotos into a panoramic view. Cheers, Bernz

Yeah, I was definitely kicking myself for leaving the tripod at home. We're leaving for the beach in a few hours and I am definitely remembering it.

Nice landscape, Becky! You've composed it well, it has a nice sky, I like the sun framed between the trees and the tree on the left stands out to add interest and dimension. Enjoy the OBX! Well be up there this Sunday for a week. I'm hoping we'll both come back with a lot of SYS fodder!
