Tranquilityby greenem2Comment: Though the sky is dramatic, I do find there is too much of it, and the most interesting parts of the sky are closer to the bottom. Since the most dramatic portions of your image are all in the lower 1/6th of the photo, I think having a panormic crop of just the mountain itself with some sky above it to be a better frame for the photo. Quite a good capture nonetheless!! |

Petronis Towersby ProofComment: I find the top rightmost parts of the photo distracting - a closer crop where the glass reflection fills the frame, even if some of the tower's reflection would be cut out, would make the shot a lot better. Needs to be color corrected a bit, seems a bit blue-greyish. Its a wonderful reflection though and its a good starting image! The size of these towers are always impressive! Just needs a little more work on the computer I find. |

Beach Stabilityby arnitComment: This is a kind of abstract shot I always like. Simple, yet pleasing to look at. Who knows, it may be even better with no rocks, just two horizontal lines, and 3 different "textured" areas. The only technical problem is depth of field - its a little too narrow for this kind of picture. In this scenario I do believe the photo would be improved if everything was in focus. |

Spread Eagle Peakby vtruanComment: jpg quality seems less than it has to be. The file size needs to be maximum 150kb so you have some room to work with if this photo originates from a higher quality image. If not for the image quality, the backdrop is gorgeous, and quite an interesting contrast between a white and barren landscape to a foreground with vegetation. The two worlds seem so near to each other :) |

High Jumpby imagesloyolaComment: This looks to be a fantastic photo but unfortunately is a little to small. Wonderful sky!! Sky seems unevenly dark in the left corner, I think I remember reading that by adjusting the polarizer angle (assuming you had a polarizer on for this effect :), you can render the sky all nice and deep blue but also evenly lit...its just of a matter of hitting the right angle. tree, jumpers and horizon all conform to the rule of thirds, making a pleasing arrangement... |

First real snow since 1956by jjbeguinComment: The trees add a nice touch of symmetry to the photo, and the stone frame adds to the composition nicely. Absence of color in the middle photo seems to contrast well with the earthen tones of the stone frame. This locale must still provide a good photo oppurtunuty during other seasons as well! |

flameby quicksand84Comment: You managed to catch a very dramatic sunset - don't think I've ever seen one so yellow. Photo just needs something in the foreground, or some landscape element that's visible, to improve the photo. It would be nice to see whats being silhoutted in the picture by exposing more of the bottom half of the photo (using a gradual ND filter?, would be nice but not everyone has one of those) |

Desertby JackoComment: Very dramatic image! Curious to see where this photo was taken. Did you shoot in infrared to get such a dark sky? composition, contrast and frame are excellent. Well done! |

Mohonkby davisspragueComment: Looks out of focus slightly, but if this is an infrared image, which is my guess at the moment, then I know firsthand how tricky it is getting things in your image sharp. Infrared has a different focusing point than the one given by your camera, not sure if that's the case here. Focusing aside, excellent sky, very dramatic landscape elements! |

Oak Treeby GotchaComment: Strong composition, even stronger if the lower bush is not present, in my opinion. Tried looking at this in B&W, and I must say it makes a stunning black and white image, especially if you "burn in" a bit of the sky, and clone out the bush. (making it DPC illegal) Hope I gave you some things to try in your image editing program! :) |
