In foreground, an old mining pit which contributed to the economic development of East Broughton ( the town in the background). Without the many mines in that area, the size of the town would be smaller.

HI Denis, I love the different elements and the quality of the shot. The clouds are really nice and the contrasting dark lake with the winding terrace. Rds, Alex

Bonsoir Denis,

La prise de vue envoie mon regard vers le village et vers les montagnes ce qui donne de la profondeur ΰ la composition. Les arbres cadrent bien l,ancien pit minier qui est devenu un lac d'un beau bleu. La lumiθre de fin d'aprθs-midi rehausse les couleurs du paysage. Bonne soirιe.

macjake (98260) 2009-12-08 4:22

Morning Denis

you can clearly see the old mining pit, never seen one like this before, with trees growing up out of them over time.
Very interesting, and even educational.
Nice work here
Cheers
Craig

belido (19934) 2009-12-08 9:09

Bonsoir Denis,

very interesting register. The perspective of the mining and your play with the layers in curves is what makes the image reading so pleasant. I also like the golden light and the depth. Although this is not natural we can understand it as a landscape postcard. Great work!
Amitiιs,
Carlos

ciakgiak (30) 2009-12-08 9:51

Hello Denis,
this is a very splendid image with great clarity and sharpness and deep colours too... I also like the view of the town on BG and the fabulous cloudy sky.
Congratulations, TFS.
Friendly regards.

Salut Denis,
Belle prise de vue et excellente perspective. Le canal qui serpente ΰ travers ce paysage nous amθne au village en arriθre-plan. Bel ιclairage et belle harmonie de couleurs avec avec le bleu intense de l'eau.
Fιlicitations!... et bonne soirιe,
Amicalement,
Emilius

Hello, Denis!

Beautiful picture of a wonderful landscape, but the greatest here, in my opinion, are the clouds, which look like in 3D. Wonderful composition! Good job!

hains (9491) 2009-12-10 21:20

Mes salutations Denis

Il est agrιable de si bien voir ce puit minier avec la ville en arriθre. Tres beau paysage avec dιtails prιcis des parois avec les arbres qui repousse. Les nuages garnissent bien le ciel et ajoute de la dimension avec les montagnes. Je compte bien aller visiter ce printemps les mines de Capelton et Eustis ainsi que de l`amiante.

Good morning Denis,
a nice panoramic view of the quarry filling with the water,and the growing town on the far end to be supported from the lots of mines of the area.I like the good management of the image as the saturated colours of the water.

Have a nice weekend,Danos

gunbud (34066) 2009-12-14 16:07

Hi Denis,
Beautiful contrasting blue of the quarry holde and the surrounding lush green countryside.
Love the distant mountains sitting against the lovely clouds and the city.
Very sharp and clear image.
Regards, Tom

pablominto (53746) 2009-12-16 0:15

Hello Denis,

Amazing blue of the artificial lake in the old quarry!
Maybe the stone later was used to build the city...
A balanced composition with good , a lovely sky and the image has a great feeling of depth!

Greetings,

Hello Denis,
This old mining pit looks very picturesquely in your picture. Very beautiful and unusual view. Excellent composition with the equally interesting foreground and background. Perfectly good quality with ideal detail contrast and sharpness, that makes the air looking so clear and transparent. Great job!
Best regards,
Sergiy

Hi Denis,

It's good to see that an activity so polluting as mining doesn't seem to have damaged the landscape. It's a beautiful photo, with an impressive clarity and a superb POV. I like the sense of depth and the way the scarped border of the lake leads the eye to the town in the distance. Great sky, also.

I wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Regards,
Josι

fabianoleite (13575) 2009-12-24 5:38

Great perspective with the twon on the background and the cliffs and water on the front, the composition was very well arranged. Congratulations and Merry Christmas!

plimrn (21344) 2009-12-25 9:03

Bonjour Denis,
This is the grand kind of scene that I have often tried to capture with little success, So let me see if I can figure out what you did to make this work. The late light turns the foreground cliff to gold and allows the opposite cliff to block the sun making the water contrast well with its deep, rich blue (no wind-ruffled glare to compete with the cliffs). The the curve of the river draws us to the sun on the distant field which adds depth and draws attention to the village. Finally the lazy clouds add interest to the sky. This is a deceptively simple composition; everything had to be just right for it to work.
SAJ, Pat

asajernigan (21427) 2009-12-28 18:26

Denis,
This is a well composed shot using the water to lead the eye into the shot. The terraced walls add a nice repeating pattern through the scene. The lighting and colors are great and the photo has excellent sharpness.
TFS,
Asa

Bonjour Denis
J'ai d'abord cru voir le Grand Canyon ΰ cause des falaises dιcorιes de verdure!
Cette eau pure et la ville lointaine aussi bien ιclairιe que l'escarpement constituent un tableau trθs attrayant.
Amicalement.
