desert dwellerIt’s everything. The light, the focus the mood and simplicity are all there. Lovely photo with almost an Asian watercolor feel.

Yes, it’s a nice shot. And you put it where it gets discovered. Of course, some of those views may be search bots, not real views :D

I tried my hand on an old cabin yesterday, but I think the photo needs something like a sunrise/sunset, raging blizzard, circling buzzards etc.

The photo with the most views I had ever taken, previous to this one, has around 3000 views and has been up on Flickr for around 7 years. I'm proud of that one. But, this contest entry by me has almost 45,000 views and I don't really know why. Very nice! The best I've ever done is one of my pics somehow got picked for Flckr's Explore page and got just shy of 6000 views. Mine was also of a flower. The lighting along with the blurred background give it a nice feel.

But I can see yours being very nice with a shot of the sun going through the gaps in the boards or an evening shot with the milkyway in the sky. Still very nice.

TravisNope doesn’t look better with circling buzzards, blizzards and sunset. But I hope it makes you laugh.

echo, your artwork reminded me of this frosted-over stream I was trying to get a photo of a few years ago:

Cool shot, Travis. As for the old cabin… probably would be improved by getting in closer, so it fills more of the frame, as the background isn’t that exciting. Light in the “golden hour” is always a bonus, and yeah, it would be better with a grizzly trying the door 🤣

GaliWalker, in your first photo I thought for a moment you had a whole bunch of elephant seals! those rocks look an awful lot like the one in my photo .
