it seems you are already able to use very well the new lens, that is easy to do...... the subject is perfect, only the tree trunk on the right (in my opinion of course) disturb a little, better to have it totaly cutted of or more visible
Well done

Hi Tom, Welcome back with the new gear and the great pic! There is some vignetting on the right... from the lens or PP?

Hey Tom,
Howdy, long long time! Do hope all is well. Happy New Year too. Nice image with no traces of stitching at all.

New Year new lens and so many more pictures to us. Cheers ;)

PS : You know I tried a sticthing experiment recently in lines with the advice you gave (few months back) and ...didnt turn out quite right!! Thought I'd mail you but figured you'd be busy and didnt want to bother you too much

Happy New Year too, and Happy Sigma 10-20 Tom :)
Great work, I've feeling of that represents justly 2006, a kind of forest where we don't know nothing except that is full of trees:)
Technically I agree with Paolo about distraction by the trunk at the bottom right but the rest a very nice mood ...

Hola, Chiquito!

These trees certainly have an orientation... Leaning under the pressure of the Danubian winds, I guess? Nice detail and panorama. Good job! And in Hungarian, just to break the monoligualism:

Szia, Fiú! :)

Ezeknek a fáknak tendenciája van, kérem... Lehet, hogy a dunai szelek képezték ezt a lenyomatot 3D-ben pár évtized alatt? Jó a panoráma, tetszik a finom részletgazdagság... Gratula!

Welcome back, ToM. I had been wondering what had happened to you and have been missing your beautiful pictures. You come back with a beauty. The composition is just perfect with a very nice subdued light. Good choice on the elongated format & framing. Excellent and hope to see more of your pictures soon!!!!

P.S. My best wishes for 2006!!!

wow!! good use of your new gear!! I am jelaous!! plus the new methods! (stitching)! a new chiquito is born, hail to Him lol!!
great work, Tom, I love the mood of this one. I just think that you should add more light to the path and illuminate it as it is the detail that gives the depth to the image. but, don't run away again because of the critique, plz!!! I missed you!!
hugs!

Hi ToM, I do enjoy these snowy winter scenes. They look so pretty and cold and freezing!! It's so hot here, sunny all day... What a shame.
No, your scene is great, the trees and snow all blend in well, and nothing here distracts me at all. Great compo, thank you,
Janice

Hi Tom, this photo is my favourite in your 4 most recent posts inclusive of this one.

I like the nice tones of bw, great quality.

Good movement of the trees that we don't see often and its by nature, not by wind.

Good low pov. Also the choice of horizontal format makes it better imho.

Cheers, Yan

Hello Again!
Your Pov is very innovating. I really enjoy the simplicity of it... Althought it contains a srtong, frozen and cold mood!
It's excellent!
Congratulations.

I love your winter shots. This one is not as successful as the other two, but it is still very pleasant to look at. The trunk of the tree in the bottom right corner seems to be out of place. Other than that, I don't have any complaints.

Katya :)
