Posting some of my photos in a few groups to get this train started. Just finished uploading a bunch of my portfolio to this site, looking forward to engaging with y'all!
I like the way you are led into the distance in this shot. I had a look at your portfolio Mike and I can see where your interest is(monochrome) but beautifully composed shots.There are a lot tagging along on this train.
That's a really good question - coincidentally, not one I'm accustomed to answered, so thanks for asking!
- The dark tones of the mountains and foreground foliage help to create a clear tonal separation (this is why I love shooting rainy scenes!)
- The mountains on the left-hand side added a sense of depth to the scene, and they have enough weight to anchor the image
- The two dominant mountains created a natural cradle for the lone footpath, which helped center my attention when I first explored this scene
Personally it's my favorite question when someone posts an image or simply asks for critique. Instead of writing about what I see, I want to know what you see! Great response :)
I'll definitely be asking myself this question proactively moving forward - good insights.
For some more background, this was taken along the A82 through Glencoe Scotland - that road is an absolute dream! I took a lot more, some of which are on my profile and IG - I even submitted this to the landscape CTC!

Thanks Geoff - appreciate the kind words! Monochrome is indeed my passion, though I've just started getting into astro.
What do you like about this image Mike?
