Very intens photo. 9 because of that hugh bright area where the sun is. Don't think you could've done anything differently, but it ruins it a bit.

Shoreline

Even though this might be the color mother nature gave you, it comes across as a bit unreel, mainly becauste it's a bit flat. Darken dark areas and lighten light areas would create more pop and a more realistic look I think. 6

Abstractions on dpc usually doesn't fare well, and there's another one that outshines this one in this contest, so this gets a bit boring. The beauty of abstractions are that there are noe limits; it's a dream world. This would look nice on any wall, but it lacks intensity and mystery for me. 5

Reflecting-Pond

Even though it's red against green and blue it doesn't stand out properly. I would've changed up this scene and gone for the reflections in the pond and left everything else. 5

I would try to drag the shutter even more to create more blur, but that's playing it safe. I like what you have done here. 9

Quiet Evening

I don't like clouds that looks like they're moving much. They should be 100% blurred by the shutter or standing still. But that's me! Apart from that I like this. 7

The color and composition is very good, and I can see this being published as a photo to build up the better ones in a series. It's a bit boring as a "stand alone photograph" because it's to much of a documentation of what nature has done here, but I guess that is well within the challenge description. 8

A full worthy PUBLISHED photograph would have more punch in it, which this lacks, but that doesn't meen this is not a full worthy photograph. I would go in and brightened the high lights and darkened the shadows where possible to add more punch. 9

Along the Rio Grande

This is a 5 because of the color. the shiny trees takes to much attention a bad way for me. They should've been darker, if possible. These kinds of shots are a killer to retouch tho, so don't let me break you down. At school we had a color correction master as a guest teacher once, and he would spend up to 4 days color correction his photos. Not 4 days straight, but he would check in every other day to see if he still agreed with his corrections. Check him out, his name is Joakim Eskildsen.
