New Joiners - Landscapes #709

This is a really beautiful image, I've just spent a week in Tuscany and saw a lot of similar inversions. I love the way it looks like an ocean lapping at the shore. It's framed well and exposed perfectly. if I'm being hyper critical the branches at the very bottom do catch my eyes a little but it's not enough to distract from the overall image. Congratulations on the win, it's a really nice shot.

This is a gorgeous sunrise/sunset! The colours are fantastic and it's exposed beautifully. The composition is nice and simple and doesn't really need much to make it work. I love the clouds and the way the lights surrounds them and fills the sky. A really nice shot :)

I love the colours in this, they're subtle but really beautiful. I'm a little puzzled at the choice of aperture, if you've upped your ISO a bit to maybe 400 and narrowed your aperture to f8 could could have kept the shutter speed high enough to hand hold and the trees in the foreground could have stayed in focus as at the moment they're a little soft. Obviously I wasn't there so there might have been a good reason!

I really like this, toe foreground and overall composition is beautiful and it's exposed perfectly. I'd have maybe cropped it to 16:9 and removed some of the sky as there's a lot of blue that takes up valuable viewing space. Good job cloning out the people I can't see where you've taken them out so you've done well!

I like the composition here, the Matterhorn is almost a nice to have addition rather than dominating which is nice. I think the colours are maybe a tad strong but then I can see it was taken on a phone so you may not have had any input to the way the colours look!

This is composed well and has all the detail in the shadows and highlights but I think it could be improved with a little more processing. I'd maybe lift the shadows and lower the highlights and you'll have a much more evenly exposed image!

It's nice to see something different from around Glencoe. Most of the shots along Rannoch moor feature either Loch Ba or Lochan na Achlaise heavily but the further afield lochs get left out so it's nice to see a wider view! I love the bold greens too, and Buachaille Etive Mor dominating the skyline in the distance <3

I love the symmetry here, despite clearly not being a flipped image it plays with your eyes as the 2 sides look so similar. It needs a small amount of counter clockwise rotation to level out the tops of the walls and correct the verticals as the whole image is leaning to the right a tiny bit!

This is a pretty awesome view, one I've love to be able to clap my own eyes on some time! I like the fluffy clouds, they definitely give an added element to an otherwise bland blue sky! I'd crop it from the bottom a tiny bit to remove the rogue rock but apart from that it's pretty bang on!

That's pretty cool, especially for a phone shot. To get still water and mirror reflections in Loch Linnhe is pretty good too, you need a slack tide on a perfect day and it looks like the stars aligned for you! I love the way the clouds almost create an X as well. Lovely shot :)

I really love this, so much that the overexposure around the sun doesn't even matter. It looks fantastic, I love the layers created by the raking light and it's composed really nicely. There's maybe a touch of a halo on the right hand side on the high contrast edges I suspect this could be rectified in lightroom with a little contrast adjustment.

I love this, it shows off something that not too many people will get to witness in their lives. I'm desperate to visit the arctic for stuff like this, maybe one day! It's hard to get a sense of scale really without a reference but the mountains will be fair size so it gives you a good idea!

I love the way you've used a shallow depth of field to throw the Gorse (yellow flowers) out of focus. It looks really good and is a creative way to shoot something different. I think it could maybe use a little bit of warming up as it's very blue, and it needs some clockwise rotation to straighten the verticals but aside from that it's really nice!

I really like this, I'm going to make a bold statement and say I think this would be a stronger image if you cropped it to remove the sun and the very dark clouds at the top and just let the interplay between the dark cliffs and illuminated sky work it's magic!

This is a pretty cool shot, I admire the use of a wide aperture to throw the foreground out of focus, it really works. I do think this could benefit from a small crop though, I'd look to crop it just above the fence line as it's quite distracting and removing it will strengthen your image no end!
