Took thesw in Uncasville, CT. Didn't expect to take any landscape photos, so the only lens with me was the 135L :(

I like #1 a little better, foreground is great. But have a question, if you knew you were going to shoot landscape then what lens would you use? I am just new to this so I hope you do not mind the question.

Thanks everyone for your nice words and comments.

Gord - I would have brought my 17-40L or at least anything wider than the 135L, maybe the 50mm.

Both are too blurry for me. Sorry. I love the composition though.

Thanks for your kind comments. When you said blurry, do you mean the OOF foreground or the overall picture quality?

It was an overcast day. Visibility is not as good as I would like to. I actually had to process the pics in PS to get better contrasts.

If you referred to the foreground, I think it's just personal preference;)

Thanks again!
