New Joiners - Landscapes #758

Thank you very much for entering this photo in the competition. There's some good strong elements in it such as the light hitting the land and the rolling hills running into the distance in the photo. Some areas to look for improvement would be the overall sharpness of the photo, it seems when you get to the trees on the hill that the focus is a little bit lost, but the strength of the composition really makes us image stand out.

This is a really nice image, I can feel myself stood here admiring this view. I like how the horizon is nice and balanced as is the reflection. One thing you can maybe look into using is a graduated filter from the sky to help with the burnt out feeling with the clouds as you can see some of the textures there and some of those haven't been preserved. The composition is really strong and I like how you've worked with the light as well.

This image I knew it was a great one to have in the top ten , it has good qualities such as the animal walking along is nice and sharp and also got some nice layering in the sand dunes in the distance is as well. Do think about the foreground in the images as well, as I feel some of that is a little bit untidy, but sometimes you just got grab the shot before you lose it, well done for still coming out with a nice image.

Very well done with this fantastic image, I like the space in the foreground also the rugged details, then you have the climbers working the ropes and also everything is in focus. This really does set the scene for how rugged the high tatras are. It's also good that none of the highlights are blown out in the shot and nothing's also lost in the shadows so you can see all the amazing details, thank you very much for sharing.

A really good use of panoramics for in a photo, I like how you managed to get the mass of water and the mountains and the sun that is setting all in one shot. Just be mindful of the details in the shot as some of these have been lost within the editing, but I appreciate that after hiking up a mountain and obviously as light is falling as well that sometimes just grabbing the shot as you go particularly when you have waiting friends, that sometimes you just got grab what you can, thank you very much for entering the competition.

A really nice image which is just right up my street, there's some good qualities with the Rock formations and the waves and the moody sky. To help the image become a little bit stronger, watch the corners and make sure that the little bits of cliff that in the bottom left hand side are not protruding in because I feel this is distracting on the shot. The details are nice and sharp and you preserved the light on the waves very well too, thank you very much for entering the competition.

Very much for entering the competition with this image. I like the choice for the long exposure on the water and also that you've managed to get some of the clouds trailing in the shop as well. Just be really careful that the foreground interest is really sharp as it looks like some of it is lost a little bit in the rock in the foreground. Thank you very much for entering the competition.

Thank you very much for answering the competition with this image, I really like the mysterious feel with the shot as you're walking up into the clouds. Then with the jagged mountains in the distance complementing the tree in the foreground it starts to feel a bit like eerie shot that I like. I'm not sure what to make of the tree part, my head is telling me that I want to see all of it in the frame and to me this makes it feel a little bit untidy on the left-hand side of the shot. But other than that I really like what you've created thank you very much.

Thank you very much for entering the competition with this image.

I really like the use of color with the barrier snaking through the image that then lead you up to the machinery. There's some great details within this and in a like the White clouds in the sky which give a nice split of the image, everything looks so still and peaceful and the tones in the shot compliment that as well.

I really like this image, it's very moody and full of drama. I like the separate layers between the cloud in the foregrounds and then some of the darker tones and the ruggedness of the mountains in the middle of the frame. Some aspects of the photo look a little bit soft in the focus, perhaps that camera wasn't a steady as it could have been. That being said, it's still a nice composition and I like what you've managed to achieve

This is a really cute image, I wish I was stood there watching this scene myself as this in such a beautiful part of the world. You've captured the sense of place very well. The skies really dramatic, but for me I'm just noticing something going on in the other side of the lock on the mountains where things look a little bit hazy and this just stands out a bit in the shots, other than that it's a really nice image, so thank you very much for entering this into the competition.

This is a really interesting shot, I like how you've played with a Shadows and also allowed the light to creep into the photo exactly where it's needed where the person is stood. Everything's been focus well and also well-positioned, such as the trees on the right have enough space, and you see enough of the rocks on the left so you can feel yourself in the scene. Thank you very much for entering the competition.

Thank you very much for entering this image. I absolutely love that sky that is absolutely crazy and love how much detail you managed to preserve with the camera. The silhouettes of the people work really well and give us a sense of scale in everything. I think the image needs a little bit more in the foreground as the sky is over empowering the shot and making it feel a little bit unbalanced but I can see why you've gone for more sky as it's so dramatic.

This is another really good shop and it's fabulous to see in the top 10. The person in the frame is really giving a sense of scale, and the mountains in the background really do sit in the image well. Everything's nice and in focus, the only thing I would say may help improve the image is giving a little bit of space to the tree on the right and on the left of the frame this may help the composition a little bit, but nonetheless still a really good photo.

Another great image that's made it into the top 10, there's a lot going on in the shot from the rugged mountains then the sense of scale with trees on the ridgeline, and then there's this beautiful sky which is illuminating the rocks as well. These are all good characteristics of some decent landscape photography and that's sky is something that most photographers chase. Thank you very much for entering the competition.
