Hello from the Critique Club,
Congratulations on a very solid score in the Morning challenge. My first impression of this image is that the colors look very real life and not over processed. I appreciate that very much in an image and generally rate these types higher than the over saturated ones the normally win the challenges. However, this image does have a lot of potential if you want to play the DPC game. Since this was an advanced editing challenge, there are a few things you could have done to make this image a bit more "DPC friendly". When I look at this image I see three very distinct layers, the layer of mountains in the front with the vegetation, a middle mountain range layer, and the far off mountain range. These three layers could have been masked and processed to bring out the best in the front and middle layers. A bit more color/saturation in the front section, a bit more contrast in the middle section would have given this image a lot more depth without sacrificing the natural look of the image. These would be relatively simple changes and I can't even begin to imagine what someone like Bear_Music could do with this image.
Feel free to PM me if you have any questions regarding this critique.
Tim

the dark green in the foreground tends to pull my eye down - I would recommend cropping it off
I find these photos disappointing when I take them. It's so amazing to be there, and you just can't "feel" it in the photo - know what I mean? I'm envious of your shooting experience here for sure! |

Glad to see a shot that really looks as though it was actually taken in the morning (there are many in this challenge that I'd question). Very nice hues on the canyon... makes me want to go back there someday! |
