congratulations on your great Picture of the Day!! super crisp with great colors and reflections....good job!!!
in the words of a world famous philospher:
"I yam what i yam and that's all what i yam!"
Nice photo, Arik! It's amazing how much the landscape in Israel looks like Utah and Nevada, here in the US. This looks so much like Lake Powell, in Utah.
The light and color are beautiful in the image. The horizon line is right, smack in the middle, though. That's generally a bad compositional strategy. I would recommend you play with cropping a little. If this were my photo I think I'd come in a bit from the sides and crop out the whole top cloud band. That places the emphasis more on the cliffs, which I think are - or should be - the main subject. Right now my eye sort of wanders up into the sky and gets lost there. The sky is nice, but I think you'll find that removing some doesn't hurt the photo and actually strengthens it.
Hope that helps. And I am looking forward to seeing more photos from you!
Photo-John
