nice, gliding, golden light. not so sure about the composition though. feels a bit too cramped for my taste.

warm regards,

Hi Shaeri!

This is a fantastic scene, no doubt, but I think that most of its power lies on that magic light that enters the frame from the right. Congratulations!

Hello!

A beautiful photograph. I like the concept here. The way you captured the golden rays without the sun!! Great composition and POV!

Keep posting,
Sayan

Shaeri,
this is trully spetacular and I'm sure that you know that very well. The scene of these three 'cowbys' is nice, but with that golden side incoming light it becomes an awesome shot. Your YNP shots are really making me very excited for my own trip there in July.

Hi Shaeri,
This photo together with the earlier one and its WS is like a photo crescendo. Riders in Wyoming... that's a very powerful icon of US, isn't it? One is reminded of John Wayne, Howard Hawks and alike. In any of them the light enhances much the magic atmosphere. This is perhaps the less great, but I wonder if I would complain of anything if you hadn't pointed the others. The WS of the other completes the crescendo by removing the only thing less well: the car.
TFS, Regards, Jos�.

Hi, Shaeri,
you have the most wonderfully diverse gallery. I love the light in this one. It gives it a feeling of some kind I find hard to describe. Like a scene from a movie. Wonderful mood, beautiful light and color and incredible detail that the name of the lodge is so clearly visible. This is a fabulous shot. Many thanks and warm wishes,
Shelly

Interesting shot, although the mood differs from the previous ones. It's not easy to frame an image when there is a procession and the hint of a horse on the left edge explains why the front horse is tightly framed. For the composition it would look better if there was more space, although I fully understand why there isn't. The beam of light from the right is a great addition. Well done

Hello Shaeri,
the most i like in this shot is the light enhances that create a magnificent atmosphere.The previous as this one are excellent captured and remind me scenes from Western movies.Great the management of the sharpness and the clarity.Well done.

Regards,Danos

Dyerco (10185) 2008-05-15 7:37

Beautiful light Shaeri. My only commenta are that the horse on the left has no room to move into although it looks like there was another horse in front of him so there was not enough space. Also I think I would have cropped out the sky as it detracts from the warm light.

stelli (3009) 2008-05-15 13:11

Very "Western" picture! Excellent framing and light management! Thank you for sharing! Regards Stella

Hello Shaeri. I like the lightness of the image. Beautiful light and color through the frame. Regards. Jusni

kiwi_explorer (12209) 2008-05-15 21:29

Hi Shaeri,
The setting sun creates a very nice and warm overall color cast and soft shadows. Good image quality ... well captured and composed. Well done! tfs
Cheers,
Renier

parbo (11092) 2008-05-15 23:17

Hi Shaeri,

Sun rays at right and all over frame are wonderful. You captured a very good moment for light directions while they are enjoying their rides. Your earlier post is also great one. Congratulations.

Best Regards,

Bonsoir,
belle photo de ces cavaliers vqui bse prom鋝ent dans ces rayons solaire qui leurs donnent un air fantomatique, comme sorti de la brume.
Grande beaut� de ces rayons qui tombent derri鋨e ces gens et leurs chevaux, cela donne un excellent effet a votre photo.

Hi Shaeri

Superb backlighting, with excellent light contrasts & sharpness. Good shadow detail in the horses flanks. Marvellous colour, & a logical framing choice, using a panoramic format. Tfs!

JPlumb (3159) 2008-05-16 4:40

Hi Shaeri, I like the way you caught the sun, is that a reflection off the dust? It warms up the scene very nicely. At first I thought your shot was tilted, because of the sign and the tree, then I realized it wasn't tilted because the riders were straight, so I figured with your angle of shot, from a lower position, you had a perspective issue, so I've gone off to play to see if we could come up with another option.

Thanks, John

Hi Shaeri,
Excellent photo with a really nice atmosphere. The light is beautiful with the golden rays of sun coming from the right. The atmosphere of the photo is also really fine. The three horses stand out well against the darker background. Thanks for sharing!
Regards,
Lars

jmdias (107213) 2008-05-16 17:20

I liked the other photo more than this one cause the golden dust was very interesting there. Here we can a little of that golden mood but I think it is less evident. I liked the gate included, helped to give more interest to this compo. good work

hi Shaeri

Golden light. Horse slow ride. Country. Roosevelt Lodge (the frame is tilting). I agree the space is cramped, perhaps a wide view?...but the view is nice.

tfs, bill

Hi Shaeri,

A beautiful environment western in this photograph I find. I like much this light of end-of-day. A pretty photograph which gives me desire for knowing the walks with horse !!! Thank you Shaeri.

With all my friendships and a very good WE,

Jean-Charles

Wandering_Dan (3449) 2008-05-17 8:58

Hi, Shaeri -

Great use of light, and overall good composition. You've got the leftmost horse too close to the edge, is all.

Best,
Dan

Angshu (56760) 2008-05-17 21:52

Hi Shaeri
Less atmospheric than the predecessor, this one is still a very fine picture. Light is the key here & is brilliant, especially the beam of light from the right. Nitpick? If you had timed the shot a second earlier...possibly more space between the front horse & the frame. But I understand the difficulties. A fine picture anyway.
Best Wishes
Angshumanda

dvlazar (6662) 2008-05-17 23:27

Hi there,
A nice moment youve captured of the riders. The low sunlight is beautiful and is a real key to its success.

The side light is quite interesting to have style and atmosphere.
Well realized.
