Sunrise At Ponce Inlet

Excellent lighting on an exceptional scene - perfect time of day. As far as an "unusual viewpoint" - don't think so.

Nice choice of viewpont - composition is the strong part of this image. Colors ok - but could be a bit more vibrant. Lots of compression or other noise, especially in the yellow and orange. Still a submission that should do well.

Nice colors and "feel" to the water - the ripples are a treat.

From Behind the Falls

Gee - doesn't everyone get behind a waterfall every day? DEFINITELY an unusual viewpoint - nice find. Your use of a tripod (I assume) and perhaps an ND filter to slow the shutter and capture the velvet look to the water is great. Sky a teeny bit hot - and the halo around the top of the waterfall looks a bit unnatural. Overall an excellent submission.

Springtime in the High Country - Mt. Princeton Road to Hancock

I assume this is a snowbridge - which s certainly an unusual viewpoint. Very difficult to read - probably too great a light variance to hle both the highlights and the shadows. The diagonal placement is a bit unnerving to me.

Ah - a real piece of artwork. Great use of leading lines that take the viewer into a well exposed and dynamic scene. Sky a bit hot - right at the top - consider cropping just a bit out - it won't hurt the image if you do. That's the only minor comment I have on this - one of the best in the show.

It certainly is an unusual viewpoint but that's about it. No real subject, a lot OOF, good exposure.

Wonderful use of the wide angle lens. It's a great shot - one of my favorites. Improve it eevn more by: a) Better lighting on the faces - especially the animal on the right, b) Catchlight in the visible eyes and c) Remove the white part of the border. It draws attention way from the image. (The ear tag is unfortunate photographically but a fact of life these days.)

Stairway of Dreams

Exceptional photo. Great composition with the leading line bringing you in from the bottom. Great exposure with detail even in the very dark steps. Go from a 9 to a 10 if: a) The bright white area in the top were toned down a bit and b) There was another color towards the top of the steps (model in red , umbrella, or anything that was a "destination" for the great leading lines." Overall. One of the best in show.
