Ridgelines

Hi Y'all,

A month or so ago I took a picture looking under the late-afternoon sun at a bunch of ridgelines marching away into the haze. What I can't figure out is what makes the best way to crop it - I've tried horizontal:

+2...

I prefer the vertical. LOL I was looking for a pic of a bunch of Honda pickups!

HA! I almost didn't click on this because I find car pics boring...

That second one really clicks with me, I like it a lot. The first one not so much, it doesn't seem to have the same depth that makes me like the second one. (though it is still good)

Thank you all for your kind words..

This was one of those pictures you don't notice until later - no colors to jump out at you..

I think they're both really nice, but I actually prefer the first one!

How about the second one as a square canvas, and the first as a triptych?

Just my 2 penn'orth!

The picture is awsome both ways, Big fan of these!!

I like them both, and I really like Bend the Light's suggestions.

Yes, I did, too - Thank You, Bend!

Doing it square is easy:

In general examine the ratio of empty space to filled space. Empty space can be useful in some cases and distract in others. Because the nature of this image is a series of horizontal ridges this image wants to be a panoramic. It doesn't have to be but IMO it really works best this way.
