New Joiners - Landscapes #558

This is a really beautiful image. I really like the composition, it's simple but works really well. Great colours and a nice choice of subject too. Sunset is my favourite time of the day, especially wen it turns out as good as this :) Nice job and well done!

Awesome colours in this, great reflections too. You've caught a fantastic sunrise here, the sky reflected in the lake is oh so sweet. Try and be mindful of the horizon when shooting water, you need to keep it level as it being slightly off can really upset the overall balance!

A really pretty scene, on what looks like a nice day. I like the layers in the hills, they give the image a good sense of depth. I'm wondering if it's maybe a tad warm, the blues in the sky have an orange/brown hue. Maybe try pulling a grad down in lightroom and cooling the temp down on the sky to see how it looks?

A nice simple shot, good on you for getting to know your camera and practising with it. The composition is alright, I'd maybe have tried to include all of the ramp of the far hut but I don't know what's to the left so it might not have been possible.

I'm chuffed you got such nice conditions after waiting so long to visit. You've caught a stonker of a sunset. The reflections in the wet sand are beautiful, and the whole image is composed with consideration. You've processed it nicely too, keeping the rocks in silhouette has largely eliminated any haloing around the edges.

I love the simplicity in this, it's like the cloud is mirroring the shape of Mt Fuji. It could maybe be improved by cropping to a 16:9 ratio to lose a bit of sky but it's still a lovely image. Nice job :)

This has bags of atmosphere, that light blasting through the low mist looks spot on. I like the way the path and fence lead towards the sun too. The vignette is maybe a tad heavy as it's pretty visible in the top corners.

This is pretty cool, nice to see something different from the norm. I think a shallow depth of field blurring the background would have worked a treat, phone sensors are pretty limiting for this though so it might not have been possible.

I really like this shot, and I admire the effort that goes into an image in this kind of setting. It looks like an awesome place to visit and I'm glad you got your break in the weather to get up there. The black and white conversion works well, it's evenly exposed and the composition is spot on.

This shot has plenty of potential, I'd maybe make a couple of small tweaks though. First, you need to ensure that you have a level horizon when shooting water, it makes a huge difference to the look of the image. The second point is just a suggestion but personally I'd have crouched down a bit more to emphasise the reflections in the wet sand!

It's not too often we see photos from the top of these peaks in Yosemite, so it's nice to get a different viewpoint. iPhones do a cracking job of stitching panoramics nowadays and it's an impressive view you've captured. I get jelly legs at heights like that!

This is a super view, the colours in the flowers are beautiful and that backdrop is something special. I like the winding path through the foreground and that little wispy cloud balances the sky nicely. Be careful using a polariser with bright blue skies and reasonably wide angled lenses as it can create a dark spot where the polarising effect is strongest. Lovely shot overall :)

A great lesson in why we should always check behind us! This is a pretty mega view, I'd have been tempted if it was possible to get as low as I could to try and include the reflections of the mountain and trees too. Nicely exposed!
