Photographer's Note
Many thanks to everyone for your nice comments. I took this photograph in Bangor, in North Wales on Bangor mountain just behind the town itself. It was taken just before a storm and in an area of natural beauty :)

Looks to me like a typical English weather - somewhere between the rain and sunshine. And I guess you were on the sunny side. Well done. I glad to spare points for the picture like this

excellent capture. The colours are so live and the light is just right to cast those beautiful shadows. You have caught the english countryside at its best.

I like that cloud in the sky, it balances the composition creating a kind of "roof". And the sunshine in the middle illuminates that beautiful landscape. Very well seen!

Very beautiful landscape and the light is amazing.
The colours looks so fresh and lush. The clouds give the composition a dramatic touch.
Well seen and taken.

Congratulations Jose! The light is beautiful here, it brings out the green grass that gives a good contrast with the dark clouds. Excellent prestorm pic.

Superb light and wonderful long shadows on that amazing green. The three big trees give such strength to the composition - great work!

Felicidades Jose Manuel. Me encantan este tipo de fotos y soy consciente de la dificultad que entrañan. La gama claro - oscuro es envidiable asi como el contraste de toda la foto.
Para mi sólo le faltan dos cosas, una pequeña reseña del fotografo con la explicación, y anular esa aberración cromática que sale en el arbol de la izda. sobre el fondo de luz brillante.
Enhorabuena.

Excelente imagem. A composição e a definição são excelentes. A qualidade da imagem faz pensar num quadro de Turner ..
Parabéns, José Manuel ..

Wonderful shot. The soft light touching the waves of gras. The bad whether to come in the distance. The person shown a little bit down the hill, it gives the photo more depth.
Great.

Beautiful lighting and atmosphere. I love how well you've captured the light filtering through the haze. And the shadows and textures of the surface are really strongly felt with this lighting. The surface is so gentle looking. Like a blanket. And I like the point of view looking out from an area with more trees out over wide spaces ahead. And so sharp and clear. Excellent job, Jose.

As already mentioned by other (a lot of, that's great!) members, the light is spectacular, the colours are fine and fresh,
the weather is wonderful (therefore also that light...), really beautiful picture, Jose !

Splendid shaving light of end day, directed well by the cloudy sky and marvelously restored on the photograph. The three trees in the foreground, give even more depth to the image.
Splendid shot Jose, congratulation.

Bautiful picture. You've captured an amzing light giving nice shades and goos contrasts increasing the details of these trees. Colours are well saturated in the foreground compared to the backgrounf almost desaturated .Very well done !

Off course you have to be lucky to be at the right time at the right place. But that counts for many pictures! You captured the light very beautifully but then I also like the rythm of the 3 trees. Very good!

Fantastic light, colours and sky. It's brilliantly sharp too, which lets us see all the detail, especially in the distant line of trees. Taken at just the right moment for optimum effect. Well done Jose!

Interesante, esta excelente foto esta siendo evaluada y criticada desde Agosto del 2004, cinco meses despues de haber sido expuesta en TE. La hora que fue tomada es la ideal, lo podemos ver por las sombras que proyectan los arboles en la grama. Me parece como si fuera un campo de golf ( quizas lo digo porque me gusta jugar golf). No voy a hablar de composicion, colores etc, ya eso ha sido cubierto a plenitud por los demas, solo quiero decir que es una extraordinaria fotografia, gracias Jose por compartirla.

Bellísimo paisaje José, el trabajo con la luz es excelente, los suaves tonos en gran contraste con las sombras proyectadas de los árboles y la sobreexposición de la derecha compensando con las sobras hacia la izquierda.
Felicitaciones

Hi Jose,
This is a very nice image. The pattern of shadow and hightlight create a sense of depth. In addition, the people in this picture demonstrate the harmony between the people and nature.

Kind of picture that is so nice, because it makes people think " I wish I was there ". Well framed, good use of light too. Well balanced. Perhaps I would have cropped a very thin slice on the right, in order not to see the tree trunk, just the leaves at the top.

Here are all ingredients of a great photo: an extraordinary sky, rays of light which enlighten only some parts of the landscape, a green colour which you can only get in a country whre rain is very frequent ...

So this must be how the "tunnel of light" must look like, at the end of days.. ;) (in that case, I hope so)
Great shot, the lighting in front, and the dark skies in the back are phenomenal.
take care, sarah
