Just spend the weekend on Doi Inthanon, with some friends, too short, and with too many people I have to go back, and do some serious photography

i like this a lot. nice composition (maybe the tree more to the right would have been nice). I like the use of a fast shutter speed on this.

Wow, great shot.  Do you also have a colour version of this very same picture, I would love to see the difference.  I am sure the B&W is much better.

bjorn--I like this shot, and I think in color it might have not been as nice. Everyone approaches taking photographs differently, and often times there is no wrong or right way. Where Gregoire wanted the tree to the right, I thought of the tree to the left. As long as it was not stuck in the middle!

you mean closer to the edge? I meant more at 1/3.

Thanks for all the comments guys, I took about 20 shots of the tree, more to the right, more to the left, closer, further but I prefer this one, I will look at them again and put one or two more up. I don't think in color tis one works.

Gregoire--I pretty much meant 1/3 as well. Maybe more to the left edge if there was more of the photo, or the right edge for that matter--just not plunk in the middle.

Hi Bjorn,
Look like you looked for expressiveness out of nature, and the shots are very nice, still If I may, I think both shots lack a bit contrasting or relief between the different elements or patterns,  and more dynamic between black and whites, away from the  medium greys. IMO.

Just looking back through the posts and saw this Bjorn.  I really like that first shot, don't know how to explain it but photos like this are the reason I took up photography.  A classic, and well observed.  Thanks for sharing with us.

thanks simon, as you can see not everybody agrees, I do like al the greys and the lack of very contrasty elements, something that always attracted me in the old landscape masters

You just explained very well what I was trying to say.  The greys and lack of contrast give it a timeless, classic feel.
