Photographie absolument magnifique, les moutons, les montagnes, le lac, les ombres des nuages.
Felicitations Jack pour ce superbe cliché.

Darryl (82) 2004-09-09 3:52

Great composistion here, Jack. Interesting colouring and saturation on this shot. And the sheep almost look as though they're coming out of the picture!

banukulaksiz (157) 2004-09-09 3:57

very good composition indeed! the light is very well managed and the view is fascinating! thanks for sharing Jack!

jemaflor (146206) 2004-09-09 4:19

On ne se lasse pas d'admirer ces moutons en surplomb de cet impressionnante vallée.
La lumière est superbement captée. Félicitation.

Great shot, Jack - really good composition, lovely colour and light. A beautiful scene.

doreeneden (1022) 2004-09-09 4:59

Excellent photo, a really nice composition and well shot

Oldtree (2457) 2004-09-09 5:44

Hi Jack,

wonderful note. I enjoyed it very much.

Your photo is excellent composed with nice detail. Well done.

jiherka (4552) 2004-09-09 6:27

I prefer this one that the "Hiking sheeps" posted soem time ago. The sheeps are making face and the landscape is larger.
Well done Jack.

Another great photo of these sheep! Jack, this one is a masterpiece! The placement, the dinamic in their moving, their look towards you and the softness of the light and overal ambiance is stunning! There's a little overxposure in top right clouds but with some more work that can be avoided.

nwoehnl (122) 2004-09-09 11:27

Fabulous scene, Jack. The landscape as such, with all the scenic value and colors contrast would already have been splendid, but to have the flock of sheep make this kind of appearance is just excellent. Your post-work effectively enhances the shadow and light setting, very impressive result.

efimoore (2126) 2004-09-09 12:52

Wonderful picture! The composition, colors, the subject and all that was mentioned above…
With your note I realized how funny this situation is (and you can put the category also as Humorous.). The best is the first sheep: you captured her in the middle of the movement and the look in her eyes is priceless – She knows where she’s going and leading the rest of the bunch.

Hanssie (11022) 2004-09-09 14:19

Treksheeps, ha ha !
Roughness of the mountains against the softness of the sheep, full dark colours, which I like in this fantastic nature, nice shot, Jack !

janwalt (263) 2004-09-09 22:28

I just love this shot Jack. That stunning landscape that you've captured so well with the clouds and shadows.... and then of course, the surprise of those sheep (almost looking human-like) just coming towards us. It's a great catch!

alpayzeybek (170) 2004-09-10 3:47

Good composition, good colors, nice angel. Some modifications made for post processing I think. Could you give more detail. Thanks for sharing. Alpay

Wonderful. This is compose of threee diffrence layer with lovely color.

mathiasmo (1759) 2004-09-10 13:56

Hi Jack. How are you going?
This is the first note I write since a long time out TE, and this is the perfect photo for coming back. Certainly one of the most beautyfull shots I´ve seen here, coming straight from a fairytail. Wonderfull colors, subjects are great, so as the atmosphere.
Nice to see your shots after so much time. Best regards to you.

Excellent,It's great,Jack.
In a fine way composed and depth is amazing,what a superb place!...in far,a boat on the sea with its lines is a bonus in this shot.

No doubt,it's my 7th favorite in TE:)

Thanks for posting,You did great,Jack.
Yours,M

maphoto (8082) 2004-09-11 13:21

That is beautiful, spendid view and composition, everything is great, perfect shot, great capture.

ldallara (9) 2004-09-11 14:52

Great DOF, the mountains look sharp, any post processing.
Nice composition. I can't recommend any improvement. possibly cropping the sky out to strengten the sheep.. but i like the sky, nice clouds..

Endy (1025) 2004-09-12 10:05

Nicely composed Jack! This sheeps in foreground are well captured especially because they watch you. You frame the sheeps with the lack in a pleasant way providing scale to us.

France (125) 2004-09-14 15:01

Cadrage spendide. Les moutons sont nets, bien placés et le décor est grandiose. Couleurs harmonieuses, ciel intéressant mais pas envahissant et lumière douce. Parfait

Mrg (825) 2004-09-15 16:21

Great great shot.All the composition, colours are fantastic. Good image Jack!

erthmuffin (1551) 2004-09-28 13:03

amazing shot! it looks very unreal. good job with the composition of sheep off to one side, and the lake (with it's beautiful color!)

Alan_Kolnik (620) 2004-09-28 13:46

The soft light emphasizes the soft wool of the sheep and the softens the distant hills, while the rough ground in front shows just how rugged this palce is. You caught a great moment and made a great composition.

MEPO (8) 2004-09-29 12:12

Meget flot billede Jack, specielt det grønne vand i baggrunden, som er helt vindstille. Jeg kan også godt lide skyerne, der kommer "susende" hen over himlen. Det kunne næsten ligne at de "støder" ind i fjeldene. Det ser rigtigt norsk ud, med fårene der græsser på de høje øde fjelde. Virkelig er billede med meget dybde i og flotte og naturlige farver. Er det en båd der kommer sejlene nede på vandet ?

dominique (11414) 2004-10-04 15:44

Very beautiful composition, all is good on the photograph, of the beautiful work .

Maru (0) 2005-03-07 12:52

Fantastic shot, Jack!
Everything is perfect, colors, composition, the sheeps looking at the photographer (us), and a terrific landscape.
Congrats!

I wonder if there is somewhere on TE a theme list with
most soothing, charming and absolutely beautiful pictures in it.
If there is - this one could be the 'sample' of such category.
And your note,Jack R. Superb.

elmec (12210) 2006-06-01 15:01

Hello Jack!
This is so amazing photo!
I like the composition with sheeps in the first plane and sharp next planes and back!
Perfectly done!
Regards!

Moustique (389) 2006-06-10 16:10

Bonjour Jack.
cette photo est déjà plus que bien notée, mais il faut avouer qu'elle est superbe et digne d'être imprimée en carte postale.
le cadrage, la lumière, le point de vue... tout est parfait !
merci du partage

banyanman (7797) 2006-07-05 5:08

I know this has already has dozens of critiques, and is currently your top rated photo, Jack, but I like it so much that I felt I had to add my two points worth too. Brilliant composition and DOF,and lovely natural colours. Parts of the sky are a little blown out, but the perfect exposure of the sheep in the foreground compensates for that. Cheers . . . David

Hi Jack. Thanks for comments. Of course, good to see other norwegians here. We have a beautiful country to present with our photos. You have a lot of really great pictures, and I liked this one, which I can see a lot of other Trekkers did :) Really great light effects. Some of the clouds are slightly overexposed, but it doesnt matter really. Overall a great picture.

I also have TrekLens and a TrekNature profile.

Hei Jack!
Incredible beautiful view from Norge!

The light is well managed;fine color of the water.
I like it!

sebcz (2345) 2006-10-02 4:37

Norway's essentials: fjords, mountains, sheep, even a small boat can be seen!
Great shot with the sheep nicely placed, their stares are amazing :)

Hallo, my friend and teacher! Long time ago from last my comment here… You did ideal picture again. Unreal composition!!! Many different colors are composed well together. Landscape are full with emotions, we can feel the place... Even small bout is going on lake. Masterpiece!
My compliments,

This is a spectacular one with a very attractive quality in the catch certainly the best couple sheep and landscape I ever seen.
Colours, sharpness and a good construction for the picture.
I like it

marknunnerley (2780) 2006-12-15 3:42

Hi Jack,
I know this is your number one rated shot but I have to mark it and not keep passing it. I don't like to do the number one as it looks like you have not looked at anyother of their work if you know what I mean. But this is simply charming. The sheep really add a lot to this splendid view. Whatever I say will already have been said. Fantastic.
br,
mark

henrytf (985) 2006-12-16 17:55

Hello Jack
What a good idea to have used the sheep in the foreground to give such depth of view.
The sharpness of the details is striking.
Superb.

danos (110407) 2007-01-02 14:48

Hi Jack,
I saw many from your photographs and I remained astonished for their clarity and immediacy.When I saw however the Treksheeps,I believed that they were genuinely and they looked at me and they approached me. In other words your photograph is exceptional.Danos ¶

calimex (151) 2007-03-02 11:35

Thank you for this impressive image, Jack. Reading the notes here and your reply is all very helpful to me, a true amateur!

Hi Jack,

Reading through some of the many, many critiques this photo has attracted I really don't think I can add anything new to the observations. Needless to say, when I first joined TE, this was one of the photos that most inspired me to buy a digital SLR and try to improve my photography skills. I still think it's one of the best photos I've seen on here. Totally inspiring work, Jack - the colours and atmosphere are truly magical.

Best regards,

Rich

Excellent shot. The colors make a special mood.

happypoppeye (4819) 2007-08-03 20:26

This has to be one the best photos on TE Jack. Composition is excellent. The color is also very good. The sheep, with their ear tags that perfectly match the color of the lake, just look great. Their differing expressions, with the one running towards you looking all pissed off and the one behind him (her) with the pink nose looking surprised or scared, really add a sense of "life" to the photo. I also like the spattered shadows of the clouds throughout the photo.

Great work.
John

Hello Jack Wonderful view, colours and clarity.
Animals must like you. Sheep usually run away when they see me, not towards me like these. Perhaps they know how good they look with their ear tags matching the colour of the lake!
Beautiful.
Best wishes Maggie

pawelx (11) 2008-01-08 1:05

We both tried this common motive of Norwegian sheep, I like the colors and composition of yours, the clouds in the sky and the very Scandinavian landscape here.
