CRITIQUE CLUB CRITIQUE
by karmat
Judging by your score and some of the comments, some people do not see silence, or quietness, as sound. Perhaps they should live with a toddler. hahahaha. Anyway, I do feel that it met the challenge, as I commented earlier, though not in a typical way.
I really like the tranquility of this shot. The muted colors, the fog, the gentle slope of the mountains, and even the isolation of the power lines and poles really set up a nice mood of solitude here.
I like the vertical crop, but I also would like to see it cropped/framed horizontally. Maybe that is because the diagonal of the mountain, and the powerline, give it a very strong lift to the edge of the picture, and I would just like to keep looking that way, instead of running out of the frame.
I commend you on your exposure. Shooting fog/mist can be difficult, because it can make parts of your picture look out of focus. You have avoided this pitfall. Also, you have some nice detail showing in the foreground.
Like indigo, I am curious as to what the dots are in the sky. I didn't notice them at first, but now that I've seem them, they are obvious to me. Almost looks like spots on my monitor.
Nice shot and best wishes in future challenges.

| powerlines don't say tranquil or silent to me. I like the mist though, very interesting idea. :) |

| Silence is golden. I love the different "layers" you have used here. |

I will not argue about whether or not this is a 'sound'. Look, I'm shutting up about it right now.
It's a very pretty photograph. I like the line of powerline poles and the dip and swap that follows the mountain for a little while. |

| I don't think those things make a sound but a good photo for me the overhead wires are a paft of reality 5 |

| Great photograph! The only thing is that I really don't like the border. I think that either no border at all or one that wasn't quite so different in color from the photograph would suit it better. |

| Nice picture, but, when I see cables, I tend to think of a "buzzing sound", and not so much of peace and tranquility. Oh well. Nice colours. |

| Peace isn't a sound. I only know that's what your image is about because you told me. It's just a landscape shot - a fairly nice one, but doesn't fit the challenge imo. |

| Wow - what great tonal gradients. A little shaky on the challenge tie in. 8 |

| Great tonal subtlety, and you actually took a picture where the powerlines don't ruin the shot. |

| This photo makes me feel calm, but it doesnt generate a feeling of sound for me. |

| A neat shot -- the fog is great! It feels like it should be rotated just slightly to the right, but that could just be my perception. |
