This is an extremely striking photo for several different reasons. To start off, the colors in this photo are beautiful. The gold, blue, brown and yellow shades compliment eachother perfectly creating a very magical image. Also the golden tones of the rocks bring out the peachy-golden shades among the blue clouds.

Something i really like about this photo is how the tree branches are oblique lines that direct the viewer's eyes to the focal point, the sun and also the main source of light. The photographer chose to empha… Continue
