Lovely nature scene. Nice composition.

Good shot. A bit on the dark side to score higher.

Nice composition; I would like it better if the ground had a bit more contrast

Nice composition. Good use of the bush in the foreground.

Very nice but could have benefitted from a little boosting of the dynamic range.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Good location, but image seems dull, flat.... like old film
of course if you were going for that effect....then excellent.

For me landscapes have to be crisp, sharp and (unless in black and white) bright and colorful. This is not very crisp or sharp or colorful for me. I do, however, like the set up of the river angling through the photo.

Wonderful view of the river in the sun.

There is a lot of potential in this image...but as it is right now...it's grainy and rather flat...i think some noise reduction and a conversion to B&W would have helped quite a bit..

Nice countryside. Beautiful sky.

Great! This is a nice area.

A beautiful scene but looks too dark and contrasty.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2009 10:23:58 AM
Nice view. A bit dark.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2009 08:15:57 AM
just a little dark on the far mountains imo
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2009 06:33:52 AM
Great scene but too soft maybe...

Good composition

Tres bon! Lovely looking place.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Looks like a nice scene. Not sure if it was possible, but it would have been nice to have gotten closer to the edge of the treeline.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 11:17:17 AM
Lovely shot, though it seems it could be a little brighter with some more editing.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 10:18:49 AM
Dynamic sky! Great detail and perspective!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 08:39:55 AM
Whole image feels rather dark.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 07:58:43 AM
beautiful countryside, you've captured it well
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 06:43:45 AM
seems like the light has been toned down due to very bright sunlight when you took it. this is a pretty scene, but it just seems a bit washed out somehow
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 09:27:04 PM
I have stood here and photographed this river. It's a splendid subject that would be better, IMO, if it were a little brighter in your photo.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 06:26:28 PM
this is one that is a bit to dark...rich greens but to far
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 06:20:22 PM
I think this must be a beautiful place, but the only thing I see is the colors. They look just a bit flat to me. Wonderful comp of the photo though.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 04:39:09 PM
Lovely scenery, but I'm not sure I like the yellowish tint. Then again, it does create an interesting aged feel to the photo, so good work either way.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 12:17:26 PM
The colouring of the image makes it feel as though it's coming from an earlier time - almost nostalgic :)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 10:24:48 AM
Nice shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 10:22:39 AM
The clouds are perfect, the framing of the trees along the bottom is nice, and the scope of the shot gives a nice feeling of the importance of the agriculture along this river.

This photo seems dark overall.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 07:00:42 AM
Nice color and landscape.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 05:53:10 AM
try turn up the yellow
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 04:47:55 AM
The greens are a little muted. Would have been better at early morning or late evening but still love the subject. Very lush looking.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 02:48:54 AM
I like how the river winds through the photo
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 12:06:53 AM
nice landscape image
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 09:26:27 PM
seems a little over processed, the colors are a little cold, i would also crop more at the bottom of the shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 09:09:08 PM
o man , its just there shot. The same shot could have been lot better with slight better post processing. Not punishing for score though, but could not get myself to score it high also.

There are some wonderful images at onexposure with similar subject, have a look. you might improve the same shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Might be a little over processed, i'm not sure, but it looks a little dark.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 07:52:52 PM
the tones remind me of images from the 70's..
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 06:49:17 PM
I don't know if I like the drab colors. The photo could do well with a little curves/levels to lighten it up as well.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 12:57:25 PM
nice composition, like how the river leads you thru the scene
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 11:44:38 AM
This is a beautiful river valley. The colors look very natural, but maybe boosting saturation a bit would make it more dramatic.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 01:43:20 AM
Very beautiful place! The picture seems a bit oversharpened.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
