New Joiners - Landscapes #588

January 2022

I've been through Corvara a number of times during trips to the Dolomites and it's a beautiful place. There are some great views to be had. I'm not sure the tree on the right adds to the composition, it's a little distracting but overall the shot is pretty nice. The dappled sunlight across the hillside definitely helps.

I really like this, it's such a simple composition but it works beautifully. I'm glad you put the effort in to find a viewpoint for it. The colours from Fujis are really nice too, very natural looking. All in all, a nice clean shot.

I really like this, it's nice to see something different in amongst all the big vista shots. The frost in the foreground looks fantastic with the warm sunlight backlighting it and using the narrow aperture for the sun star was a good choice. The slow shutter speed is just the right amount, softening the water but still keeping the texture. An all round lovely shot.

This is a wonderful image, and a spectacular view! Banff is one place that I'm desperate to visit and seeing photos like this just makes me want to go more and more. I love the colour in the water, and the dappled light across the trees works nicely too!

I am dreadful at photographs like this, I just can't see the compositions and they just end up a mess. This one's pretty clean looking, nice simple contrasting colours and what looks to be a relatively straightforward composition. Nicely done.

A classic scene, shot many times over. It looks nice bathed in sunlight and feels very inviting. I'd maybe crop this to 16:9 or similar as there's a lot of very blue sky that demands your attention but apart from that it's pretty nice! :)

This is a great photo, I love the angle you've chosen with the setting sun behind. It really makes the composition. Good use of shutter speed to freeze the action as well. The people being hid in shadow makes them stand out less, I'm sure it's difficult to get a shot without loads of people in here so well done.
