Wonderful landscapes! Very loosey, juicy and not your typical landscapes. I'm having a devil of a time loosening up and fear I'll produce the religious calendar look you mentioned.:( After looking at his work, then looking at what I've produced so far...man, oh man.

You might want to check out some landscapes by Xavier Swolfs, he gets some effects that might give you some ideas.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07901533179774248604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37200829.post-35904907278804763782009-05-26T20:05:55.962-07:002009-05-26T20:05:55.962-07:00I agree, Anita.

Finding a good focal point has never been my thing. I like where you are heading though, and I know you will come up with something fantastic.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07576816029698093978noreply@blogger.com
