Wow, big sky! Maybe crop some of the top?

Did you get my PM?

Thanks Mike. I think you're right, too much sky. That was actually a crop already LOL. I moved the same crop, but down a little bit to show more foreground.

Better. I would go from just above the left clouds. If that makes sense.

Thanks, but doing that would make it a non-standard crop, which I don't like to do usually.

The 2nd crop is good but I agree not to cut off too much. The "god rays" help make the photo! I enjoyed them both! Good job

I understand. For something like that, I'd try for a 2:1 ratio.

Nice shot Todd. The crop in the second image is much better.
