Landscapes in portrait format

Is it a landscape or is it a seascape? Well, yes it's both but it's also strikingly beautiful.

Talk about perfect timing the moon looks like a ball of golden light bouncing across the sky. Even the blades are perfect for this shot. The way that one of them just touches the edge of the moon like it is nearly holding it back is a gorgeous touch.

Truly striking image, incredibly well done.

When the competition suggested shots with details and layers and this photograph deliver in style with bucket loads of both layers and details. Finishing in 12th place for me I loved the layering effect and the soft golden light in this shot.

It's such a peaceful scene captured beautifully. I hope you have a large print of this shot and it's hanging very proudly in your home.

Beautiful photograph of a stunning cherry blossom tree in gorgeous light. That photograph was well worth all the early morning trips to this location and attempts to capture this stunning scene. Beautifully edited too, I can see a large print of this hanging on walls all around the world. Congratulations on sixth place.

If this was a lone tree competition this shot would have been the stand out winner for me. It's just so beautiful and peaceful with incredible detail that doesn't jump out at you but slowly reveals itself. Absolutely love this shot and I would be proud to have this photograph hanging on my wall. Congratulations on fifth place.

Congratulations on winning this competition, this is a truly captivating shot of a beautiful location with some stunning layers and lighting too of course. The long exposure added a very nice effect also. Congratulations again on the win and it's richly deserved.

Beautiful photograph of an amazing location, the fog just adds gorgeous layers to this shot with the mountain in the background gently revealing itself then too.... Your depth of field was just perfect on this shot. My wife walked in when I was compiling my top ten images and she just went "Wow that's so beautiful" when she saw your shot. Congratulations on Fourth place.

Some truly great detail, colours and scenery in this shot. What a stunning location on its own even without the hot air ballons they only make the scene look even more surreal. All combined with the soft golden side lighting making it a sight to behold. Congratulations on your gorgeous photograph .

Lofoten is one of those magical places and this photograph captures it beautfully. The 8 second exposure adds lovely movement in the water and the light just helps to make the whole image pop for me. Congratulations on your top 10 finish, it's well deserved.

Absolutely loving the details and side view of this amazing scene. It looks like a fire is raging just behind the cliff face with the light filled water looking like smoke lifting from the flames.

Very striking image and the fact you have to guess what it is the first time you see it, makes it all the more amazing. That's a scene I would love to see for myself one day.

Namibia from what I hear is stunning and this photograph is proof of that. A photographer friend of mine has gone there nearly every year for the last 12 years I have known him so I know this place well from his photographs.

I love the edit in this shot, the detail in the foreground and the soft transition to the background is beautifull too.

This gorgeous shot came in at 11th place for me and it was a very close call for it making the top 10.

Antelope Canyon is an incredibly beautiful place and this photograph does it more than justice. All you needed here now was a slight twirl of the wind and you may have captured a photography like Peter Lik's "Phantom".

Congrats again on a beautfiul photograph.

I was going through all the photographs and this photograph struck me immediately.

I couldn't decide if it was the composition or the edit and the more I looked at it I still couldn't decide so I am fairly sure it's both of them.

Beautifully framed, this should be on book covers and postcards it's as simple as that. Congratulations on seventh place.

A view I have seen myself a few times over the years but I never got conditions as good as this to photograph it in.

That's such a beautiful capture, the long expsoure really helped to settle the water and reduce any detail there and framing is perfect also, it makes me want to jump back into the car now and head back there.

Great shot and well done on this beautiful photograph.

Congratulations on third place with a stunning photograph. The foreground detail is incredible and it all just gently guides you to those beautifully trees in the background. The more you look at this photograph the more you see. It just slowly unravels and tells its tale in a very soft quiet way.

What a beautiful photograph, it has it all, lighting, detail, colour tones and feel. I could literally look at this photograph for hours. It was very close between first and second place so well done again, great photograph. I would be very happy to have that hanging on my wall.
