New Joiners - Landscapes #730

You've caught some mega reflections here, on a lovely day too. I love shots like this. The colours are nice too, and the willow tree looks amazing. I'd maybe liked to have seen the branches and grass on the right framed out for a cleaner overall image but it's not too much of an issue!

i really like this, it's composed well and has plenty of atmosphere. The reflections are good and the black sand really emphasises the mood. The sky has loads of interest and the tuft of golden grass breaks up the dark tones well. An easy choice for number one, well done.

This has bags of atmosphere and mood, It's always going to be hard to capture all the dynamic range on a mobile and avoid the blown out sun but on this occasion it doesn't really detract from the overall image! Were the Turkeys friendly?

This looks like it could be used on a double spread on a brochure. The colours are nice, it's framed well and shows off the area nicely. I love the turquoise in the shallow water, it contrasts well with the deep blues.

I like this, I'm a fan of black and white images and this one looks good. I think it could be improved with some careful processing. I'd look to lighten the foreground and darken the sky to balance it out a little.

This is a really beautiful photo, with a lovely sentiment behind it. We like that you found them and sent them a print too! It's composed nicely and shows a really nice moment. from a technical perspective it looks nice and sharp throughout and you've done a good job of containing the highlights in a tough scene.

This is a fantastic photo. I love the way you've processed it, the steely blue colours in the sky compliment the strong whites throughout. It's composed well and nice and sharp throughout. I like the square crop too, it really works well!

Compositionally this is fantastic, the water movement is perfect and I love the way it cascades through the image. I feel like the colours look unnatural and are too bright for the scene. I'd maybe look to reduce the saturation by about 25% and darken it down a little and it'll improve no end!

This is composed beautifully, I love the way the central tree is framed and completely surrounded by the heather. I think you've done a good job despite some tough conditions. I'd maybe look to darken the sky a bit and brighten up the foreground just to brighten up the colours in the heather.

I really like this, the colours are good and the subject itself is really nice. One observation is the use of a wide aperture for it, I'd have stopped down to about f11 to ensure sharpness front to back, unless of course you shot this hand held and then I understand!

Looking at this makes me want to be stood there taking it in, what a great view! You've caught some beautiful reflections here! My only real criticism is the dark trees on the right hand side, I'd have maybe liked to have seen them framed out if possible but it's not a huge issue.

I really like the composition here and the way the boat frames 50% of the image. It's a shame the sky is overexposed as I feel that with a really dramatic sky this would easily have been a top 3 image.

This reminds me of a trip to the Masai Mara in Kenya, we saw so many beautiful sunsets like this and each one was as amazing as the last. I love the way the rich colours just blend together and the lone tree works well as a standalone composition!
