Near Conway Summit along HWY 395 in the Sierra Nevadas of California. 1/2 stop ND grad filter for the sky, polarizer. Taken near noon, having a dramatic sky helps bring the flat lighting to life. About the white spot--I didn't see that, after looking at the original, it looks like a wrapper or paper blown in the wind got caught by my camera!

Surreal landscape. Wonderful blue sky perfectly complimented by the yellow foliage. However, this could use a little Unsharp Masking to bring more definition to the vegetation. Also, you're aware of the white spot on the tree already.

Usually it's better not to have the horizion dead center. In your case the sky is equally dramatic with the ground. I think it works and is very dramatic. Colors contrast beautifully.

The colour is beautiful. Great landscape. What is the white spot at the tree at the bottom right ? Is that because of the sunlight ?

Just beautiful ... great clarity and detail. The yellow almost looks like paint. The white spot on the bottom right looks strange. Small mistake ? Anyway, 3 thumbs up !
