I see your point, Brian. That hadn't occurred to me at all, and it
may be why I'm on the fence about it. I loved the colors, and the way
the clouds suggested smoke emanating from the "fiery" color in the
trees. But, there's no point in the photo that draws the eye.
I'll go ahead and submit it just to be surprised if it passes muster.
But, if they kick me out of the gallery for it, I'm blaming you.

Hi all,
I'm submitting a few more images for the Pentax Gallery, and just wanted
to get a little input on this shot, as I'm on the fence about it.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/walt_gilbert/5185239879/
K-x, DAL 18-55 (at 18mm), f/4, ISO 800, 1/3200, Aperture Priority
(I'd been taking pictures of family in a fairly dim room before I went
out for my stroll and neglected to adjust for conditions outside. Hence
the high ISO.)
I like it as an image on its own merits, but in a gallery full of
foliage photos, I just don't know if it would get my attention. So, any
input -- thumbs-up-or-down -- would be appreciated.
Thumbs sideways....
The colours and contrst are great and the split between the foliage and
sky forms a diagonal across the frame which is interesting.
My reservation is that it doesn't seem to have a defined focal point.
That said, I'd submit it anyway.
Cheers
Brian
