Klaus,

 

I like your composition very much. If it were my shot, I'd try a version without the small bush on the bottom right--just to simplify even more. The heavy green also overwhelms it a bit for me. I'd probably try desaturating it a little. But that's just me and my wierd aversion to too much green in a photo.

 

I really enjoy this type of seeing--with its strong emphasis on pure form and composition.

John, thank you for your comment.

I agree about the small bush. I just did not noticed it though it is so obvious.

Here is another shot from another day taken later in afternoon light ..

therefore even more saturated :-(, but without the bush. :-)

The second is also nice, especially the umber(?) color on the left and on the grass tips along the right edge of the path. I do like the softer light and deeper sky and cloud pattern of the first.

 

Maybe you read Freeman Patterson's books about design in photographs, but there's a nice interview with Larry Freeman at Freeman Patterson Interview. I thought of it because he discusses triangles, which are so strong in your image.

Great composition Klaus.

I prefer the first with the tree in the upper part closing the composition and to weigh of the small bush on the bottom right and mainly by clouds.

On the contrary I like much the light of second.

I believe that the sum of the two is the perfect photo.

Hello,

 

Beautiful admission. The powerful shrubs, which optical tightness of the way and the view leaves over the edge of way me the abyss to suspect.

 

Kind regards

Klaus -

 

I'm glad to see you experimenting with strong variations on your more normally posted style. This is almost "jarring" in its contrast to your usual further back view, but still very effective. As I mentioned with your longer shot of the brave pilot, I think this is a bit over sharpened.
