Nice attempt at a night shot. I would like to see the stars a bit sharper to offset the rest of the image. The purple hue works well for this.

Nice lines in this image. I would like to see less of the pier and the upside down rowboat which detracts from the rest of the image. It creates kind of an eyesore in an otherwise beautifully serene image.

Red River

I get a definite abstract feeling from the unusual shapes, brilliant colors and strong movement. Interesting how the red cloud almost mimics the shape of the river. Good combination of lights and darks. Very well done.

Very nice detail in this. The two trees act as an entranceway leading me through to the horizon. I almost expect something to be waiting for me there.

Corbett's Falls

I agree with Janine on the focal point of this image, it could use more height to balance out the falls. Your FS version worked much better. The fisherman does add some interest to the photo.

Hole of Horcum - last light

I still think HDR creates too many phantoms, I've tried it on outdoor scenics and it always looks a little strange. The tree in the foreground is a good example of this, it's not quite matched up which gives it a very soft, unfocused appearance. Any slight movement will do this. HDR bracketed images must be totally stationary because any slight movement will create phantoms and no matter what they tell you, these cannot be aligned.
HDR works great for statonary interior shots with controlled lighting.

I do like the colors in your image and the great DOF.

I like the reflection in the water but I don't care for the top part of the image. Maybe that's just me but it doesn't appear to have a natural look about it. The bottom half of the image is quite nice.

Unfortuntely, the sky adds nothing to this and the lower right/bottom portion is too dark which leaves the mts. This could've been very nice if you had adjusted your exposure or used a filter. It also would have been nice had the sky been blue or perhaps some clouds would have helped. Were you shooting into the sun?

This is very nice, but I had to paste the number into the link in order to bring it up. Maybe check your thumbnail link to see what happened.

I think the yellow hue adds warmth to an otherwise cold image. It actually appears inviting.

Very mesmerizing! That must have been a real feat.. walking back down in the same footprints you made going up.. you're lucky you didn't lose your balance and make a body print too, lol.

The textures in this are exceptional, I also like your grey tones.
