Didn't have a whole lot of time to shoot since it was getting dark and me and wife needed to get to the campground and get the tent set up. Thoughts?

I guess I just caught it at a certain time of day. I was on my honeymoon when I shot this so time was limited. Only had time to stop the pickup, shoot and head on down the road.

hecster Member 249 posts Joined Jun 2008 Location: San Jose, CA More info | Nov 01, 2008 20:40 | #13 nice shot, but looks a bit bland and hazy. I like the life that jgrussell brought to the shot. That's exactly what it needed. jg, what did u do with it exactly? just contrast and color adjustments? 40D | 50mm 1.8 | 24-105L |17-55 2.8 | 430EX | vivitar 285hv | CyberSync

Nathan Can you repeat the question, please?  More info | Nov 01, 2008 20:57 | #14 i was going to suggest cropping it, but as i scrolled down flying photog took care of it... Taking photos with a fancy camera does not make me a photographer.
