		from jwphotography/Joseph (7,632) on May 12, 2009 6:49:18 PM CDT (0) Nice landscape photo, Daniel, but as previously noted, too much sky and not enough of what is the most captivating, that being the vineyards and mountain backdrop. Also, it appears that you lost much detail, perhaps due to the website's upload. Try lowering the dpi to just under 900. I reduce the longest dimension, whether it be length or width, to 890, and lose virtually nothing. All comes out as sharp as I initially caught it. Thanks for posting.

This probally would not have had to be HDR... Reply

There is far too much uninteresting sky on display here and the 'trail' which grabs the eye on the lower right would probably work better in the middle of the frame - or at least not so far to the right.
