I have to say I am often drawn to details in trees and clouds and water, so the resulting image is more about texture, light and color rather than providing the viewer the experience of "the scene in front of me."

my response: John, I viewed the picture in question early this AM before you made your comment. My first reaction was, "nice".

It's quite possible that, within the totality of that body of work, you will end up with an interesting sub-genre body of work of "details ... more about texture, light and color" pictures. One which, if exhibited as a cohesive body of work, would be visually rich and interesting.
