I really like single color images, and I have some brown fields as well, but this is my perennial (pun intended) favorite. ### What technical feedback would you like if any? Any ### What artistic feedback would you like if any? Is the stasis of the square, single-color composition captivating enough. For me, it provides a sense of calm, zen-like meditation. I’m weird that way though. ### Pertinent technical details or techniques: (If this is a composite, etc. please be honest with your techniques to help others learn) Single image, cropped and processed lightly in LR ##### **_You may only download this image to demonstrate post-processing techniques._** ---

I like the smooth curves and subtle shadings, Marylynne. The Palouse is one of my favorites and this captures it very well. ---

Marylynne, Beautiful image from the Palouse; great layers, curves lines - and of course color. I really think your square crop nails the composition as well. Never been, but there sure seems like endless photo opportunities there. Fabulous entry! Lon ---

Marylynne, the waves of green look great. The variety of attractive green/yellow tones are great as is the sense of movement from the hills. ---

Marylynne, as others have mentioned and my immediate thoughts were of the Palouse this is an excellent take on the area. And, of course the image fits the WC theme perfectly…🕶 ---

Lovely graceful lines along with some wonderful lush greens, Marylynne. I have never been to the Palouse, but the photo opportunities with the layering hillsides and shades of green look plentiful. ---

The green works well here (my favorite color). That’s an area I always wanted to visit, unfortunately too far from home for me ☹. ---

Beautiful image Marilynn. I love these greens. This is Oregon’s answer to the dunes at Death Valley. ---
