Ron, you're right .. the colors of this area are just amazing to see. Some day I'd like to go there. In this particular one, it's interesing to see that patch of very green grass in the distance. Do you think thats a crop of some sort? Almost looks like the well-manicured grass of a golf course!
Fantastic shot, with all the different layers. Great job Ron.
Have a great weekend

Nature can be so beautiful Ron and you have caught on your lens the colourful side of it , one those landscapes that once admired is hard to forget , agree with Trudy here: the patch of green draws some attention along with the layers of colors in the chocolate-caramel-looking low hills, nicely composed,
tfs,
Carol

Hi Ron,
Again such a wonderful coloured landscape. Very well captured and presented. The clearness is amazing, and so is the composition. Great posting Ron!

and as far away from the Scots as we can make them. LoL.....
Hello Ron,
A grand capture of the Hills, the colors this year were by far the best, as was the lighting as the air was very clear due the moisture in the atmosphere.
Excellent post, and Have A Great Weekend...

Hi Ron
You've nailed the colours nicely here especially in the evening light. That patch of green always intrigues me when I see a shot from this angle.

Hi Ronald,
A gorgeous presentation from an incredible place. I love the late evening light - does it bring out the colors or what? Stunning. TFS. Gerald

Been away so missed your latest shots! This is very nice - I like the different layers throughout the scene with differing colours and contrasts. Nice side lighting with a golden glow.
I do think though that f4.2 is too wide for this landscape as the grasses at the front are out of focus - f9 would be ideal with 35mm lens using either a tripod or higher ISO. I always shot landscapes in aperture mode to give better control of DOF and with a D80 you'll certainly get a pin sharp photo through the whole scene.

Cheers
David
