Colorwise this is a monochromatic piece and that works well with this subject. The bird is so white that there needs to be two other repeats in other areas of this stark white in order to travel the eye. One bird out of sinc, even though they do fly in that formation, wd have aided the piece. Wd have liked one tree to be up there in height to break the line but it is your call and a nice piece

Comment from Lucien van Oosten


Nice blues, I like the way all of those color were used to create the forest, the sky and the landscape. To me all of that and the geese or water fowl flying all comes across very well. ( might have illustrated the water fowl flying a little more orderly, but the thing I think that needs adjusting is the white bird, it seems so out of place to me, compared to the rest of the image, and in my way of thinking should not be there, it might be more harmonious if that were more water fowl in the same color scheme as the rest of the composition, know what I mean, the rest flows so well, in color and subject matter, in form and shapes, it just looks out of place.

Comment from PetaPan35


I love the Wintery feel of this landscape Great blend of shades and tones and the geese perfectly placed: great composition and balance. I feel, however, that the stark white Ibis (?) does not quite fit - though this is to do with the colour (lack of colour?) rather than the shape or placement, which balance the geese nicely. Maybe slightly off-white would not be quite as distracting?. However, I still love it - gives me a sense of peace and cam and stillness. Cheers, Peta :-)

I think this should be called "Magic Blue" or maybe "Fantasy in Blue" - it is so lovely, full of fantasy, story telling and clam mood

This is brilliant stuff. I am not an expert in digitals. But looking at the composition, and the soft misty colours , the birds I can safely say that this is a fine landscape artwork. Very romantic. Well done.

Simplicity at times says so much more than clutter and this piece represents that idea very well. The colour, compositional balance and viewing appeal here are lovely. Thanks. Robin
