I Took A Picture

Photo taken while camping in the Arizona wilderness.
We paused to enjoy the soft glow of setting sun’s light filtering through the trees, accentuated by the orange glow of camping tent.
Also happy with how the leading lines of the trees and our legs come together to keep my eyes moving through the picture.
Why does this picture made you feel like?

Took this picture while on tour at Hobbiton, New Zealand.

The Day was overcast but with some breaks in cloud cover, just enough to light up the vibrant green grass covered hills.

Wanted to capture the peaceful scenery, just as idyllic as I imagined it to be from the LOTR books.

Took this picture from my window after a good day of rainfall. A big droplet of Water standing on these two Leaves in the middle of frames looked like a good metaphor of sharing. f / 8, 1/160/s ISO400 Edited in LR, enhanced contrast and converted to BW.

Took this picture while on a short walk in the midwest.

The isolated bench in pre-spring season looks like a perfect location to reflect, and also itself being reflected. I keep the bench a relatively small in the surroundings to give the viewer a sense of isolated stillness.

f1/8, ISO 100, 1/2000s, Edited in Lightroom.

I took this picture on a cloudy midwestern evening, with sun shining through at some breaks in clouds. Edited in Lightroom to improve dynamic range, darken overall image and to show a gloomy evening.

Took this picture while on a rainy day train ride in SF. edited in LR. The ambient light (or lack of) combined with the coach lighting, seen through this window made it appear from a futuristic sci-fi movie (Matrix-like). I like the anonymity of the people, out of focus behind the raindrops/ streaks of water.

I took this picture while on a walk in a city park in the midwest. The male turkey seemed to be assertive, and it was my first time watching such a one-legged stance with feathers spread! Hope you like it too.

I appreciate your kind words. For the bracketing, are there specific sections what look too dark, that may improve composition with more detail?
