A wonderful feel to this image - wild and windy. Looks great.

Glacus Arantes {K:818} 4/28/2005

You have wonderful photos around here, but this one called my attention. What colors and contrast, shapes and everything else. Amazing, love it!

thanks very much Bryan!

Bryan Jarmain {K:11941} 4/22/2005

A stunning photo, David. Something to really aspire to. The central horizon doesnt distract at all here - both the sky and the land add lots of value. Well done.

David Hofmann {K:22223} 4/19/2005

Thanks James, I see what you mean. the missing center is ok with me, I couldn't make a decision if I should give the sky or ground more weighting and ended up making no real choice (it is pretty much 50/50). :)

My biggest problem that day was I came to this place the very first time, was overwhelmed with the scenery I saw and tried to take some photos while constantly keeping my eye on my two little kids (2 & 3.5) to make sure they would not step onto a rattle snake (I almost touched one when trying to get a low angle shot).

James Hager {K:6285} 4/18/2005

Beautiful sky and a nice bunch of poppies. The composition is a bit flat to me because there's nothing for my eyes to settle on.

David Hofmann {K:22223} 4/13/2005

Hi Melanie, sorry to hear that. I really hope you get that truck repaired soon.

David Hofmann {K:22223} 4/13/2005

thanks a lot Larry!

Larry Monserate Piojo {K:10780} 4/13/2005

Wow! Sir David Hoffman! This is fabulous!!! and congrats on the front page!!!

Melanie Reynolds {K:9096} 4/12/2005

Sorry so long to reply! I do live close by, but have not made it out there

( My husband has been driving our car to work since his truck broke down... and when he's not working we don't go too far with these gas prices. Unfortunatley we have been short on funds since the nasty wheather! He cannot work when the weather is bad... now that you know my life story ;o) LOL There are some gorgeous wildflowers off the 58 between Tehachapi and Bakersfield where I really want to take my boys for some photos!

David Hofmann {K:22223} 4/11/2005

Hi Elena, thanks a lot! The place is called Poppy Reserve and it is Close to Lancaster. You take the 14, exit on "Ave. I" (yes they don't have names, just letters) and keep going west on "I". After 10 minutes you are in the middle of poppys. Very busy on the weekends these days.

I didn't do too much to this photo. I adjusted the contrast and colors a little both for the sky and ground separately. This is pretty much as it looked like this day.

Elena Zabelina {K:23212} 4/10/2005

What a wonderful view... Very colorfull panorama.
Absilutely excellent shoot. Did you use some filter for sky? Or this clouds from second shoot? Great effect - looks like clouds moving up. Amazing color...7+++ To my Favorites.
Lena
O, where is this place? I live in California too, can you give me direction, please.

David Hofmann {K:22223} 4/8/2005

thanks David, I have been there only once. I thought about going there one more time at sunrise, but that would mean getting up really early :)

David Nepinsky {K:238} 4/8/2005

Excellent capture and work in PS David. You have some very nice images of the Poppy Reserve. Have you been back there recently? This has been an excellent year in California for wildflowers. They are blooming all over the place thanks to the heavy rainfall.

David Hofmann {K:22223} 4/5/2005

thanks Mel. Don't you live close to that? Did you go this year?

C.A. Mikulice {K:13300} 4/5/2005

both the clouds and the poppy fields are wonderful, David. Spectacular photo.
