i took this photo late saturday evening on November 24th of this year, after three days of hunting with my brothers-in-law. the orange is so intense because of a) a recently-harvested corn field was being burned (it’s a method of putting nutrients straight back into the soil), and b) a cross-process filter which also deepened the blue and removed the haze from the smoke. my angle on this wasn’t exactly perfect, but i don’t think i would have brought up a lot more of the trees in the foreground if i had dropped to one knee. as well, the sun disappears rather quickly this time of the year, and i didn’t have time to go running across the field to get more of the trees in the foreground. i’m hoping that a future version can be derived that will highlight the trees and make a nice progressive triptych with other versions. i released it anyway, because….well, i like it.
you’re welcome to read the release announcement. terribly exciting stuff, i know. it was also added to my portfolios.com portfolio.
What a gorgeous photo… and the journey goes forth. Good for you. What loser I was at the salon, not realizing that you were synthaetica!
Good things to you man!
i came through at the salon as Synthaetica? damn. well, that’s what i get. i installed and setup skype right before logging on to that. i thought i had it setup to show me as commander other. that’s MY bad, not yours!
although, since you can find me as Synthaetica-at-almost-anywhere (gmail, aim, yahoo, my own domains, etc), it does somewhat go to follow, LOL!
