:) Wonderfully done Amy! really like that you placed the tent? to the corner of the image..good composition!

@kaushal: Thanks Kaushal!!! It's actually called a tepee (some say tee pee and some spell it tipi.. depends on the dialect of the tribe) but tent works, too.

I'm still waiting for another new post from you... ;-)

Roberta from Rocky Mtn House, Canada

Very nice. Good composition, and the grasses are the icing on the cake.

Viewfinder from Bradenton, United States

First saw tipis on a trip to SoDakota/Wyoming some years ago (wish I'd had a digital back then). Fell in love with the look then -- and here you go, you've gone and captured it all over again for me, Amy. I love this photo!

17 Sep 2007 9:29pm

@Viewfinder: It's so great to get comments like yours Viewfinder!! Thanks so very much!! Now if you want to see an amazing shot of a tipi you should try to visit my friends' blog at www.uncommondepth.com. I can't remember where exactly she posted it (under what category) but you'll be impressed with all her other images while you look for the tipi.. She (Roberta) really took a remarkable image of the tipi.

Robert from Oshawa, Ontario, Canada

Nice shot, Amy. Love the silhouette of the tall grass. It really adds a lot to the shot.

@Robert: Thanks Robert!! It's always so great when what you invision actually works!!
