C\Gulf Coast Landscapes - 05-21-2005, 12:17 PM


As an admirer of Ansel Adams, I have looked through many of his books as well as stuied his zone system and other creations he brought into photography. As I look through many different photographers works I see that there are a great number that use mountains as a focal point in their works. Besides moutain views and reflections there are waterfalls and beach scenes which also include a vantage point of a mountain or cliff.
Here on the 3rd coast we have no such vistas. Just flat coastal plains with marshes and sand dunes, rivers, and creeks. Lots of great oak trees and pecan trees as well the brush and shrubs of the wooded areas.
So I want to drop some occational landscapes from the "foggy bottoms", as one old timer used to call it, to see how the wiegh against those shots coming in from the hill country.

For more take look at my gallery at: www.denito.com. All comments welcome. Thnx cdmac

My favorite is the second. The first one is too busy for me.
I did however visit your website gallery and wanted to say you have some excellent shots in there. I have always been fond of sunsets and I found alot of other interesting shots too.

Thanks for your comments. The Gulf Coast has never been represented like the other 2 coast are. I would like to change all that with my own work as well as challenge others from this area to do the same. It will be a BIG challenge since so many greats have shot the West and East coast. But I'm planning on giving it my all. :)
