Description
Where does it all begin? All remote solitude,all recluse distances bidding dusk farewell,
it follows thought's landscape far and wide,
scatters out and drifts thinning mist away.
Glimpsed in the still night of autumn wilds,
a lone mountain monk wanders back home.
- Wei Ying-wu (737-792 CE)
There was something soothing about sitting on the sun-warmed rocks, camera positioned and focused, and cable release in hand
Update: redid the colors and bumped the color temperature, more satisfied with it now
Nikon D200
Sigma 10-20mm EX HSM lens
Lee Grad ND filter
5 exposures

Great stuff. The green grass breaks up the comp just enough w/o being too intruding. Well done

Thanks No flash, just hdr to increase the dynamic range

Ah, very nicely done then, it doesn't look HDR-ish.

Thanks, it's too bad that the so-called "hdr look" implies something nowadays. HDR should be just another technique

So beautiful. I actually was searching deviantart for inspiration for some last minute fiction for my writing class to turn in, and this inspired a short one. If you like, I can send it to you?
At any rate, this is stunning!

There's no way to describe such a beautiful scene. Imagining this scene, closing your eyes and your just there. Your pictures are amazing, but I think this is the best one you have in your gallery. It's so tranquil and beautiful, even "breathtaking" is a word short of this photo.

As well it should be. As I said, the beauty of this picture simply cannot be described.
