I need a good cactus/landscape photo
Hey y'all~
I know we have some fantastic shutterbugs around here, so I'd like to ask for help locating a great photo to use on a label. I'm making a southwest spice mix made with chipotle, cumin, garlic, and lots of other secret spices. (No salt, sugar, etc...all organic...). So what I need is a great photo of some southwest landscapes, Baja counts as southwest to me, to use on the label. Maybe some cacti outlined against the sky, or some red hills, or ??? I'm having trouble using a photo of hills with lots of different vegetation as the colors are too varied and I can't get the text to show up. The ultimate picture would have a dark cactus/cacti outlined against a great sunset/sunrise with a generous area of sky that is mostly one "color" so I can set the text in a different contrasting color. Bill E. had some gorgeous photos of a Loreto bay sunrise posted elsewhere recently, and he was generous enough to let me use one for another product. It had an orange sky with clouds of various shades of orange and an almost black sea. If you have a photo you think might work and are willing to let me use it, I would sure appreciate it. I'll give the chosen photographer a credit on the label if they want it and a free jar of the Southwest Spice Mix. PS- LongLegs, if you don't have one that meets this criteria in your files, I'm sure you'll to get up at the crack of dawn every day until the perfect sunriseand cactus composition is achieved. Just to help a friend...right? (just kidding........sort of!........) PPS-when you're setting up the picture,try to have the cactus on the LEFT~~~~ Happy Holiday's EVERYONE! OH YEAH! If you have a great photo to share, send me a PM, I'll send you my email. If you can email the photo in a higher resolution than what is normally used here on the forums, that would help with the quality of the end label. I can crop the photos as needed to get the areas that will work. THANKS!
