Ed

This was one of my top three. You have a nice eye and a subtle touch with editing. Personal taste would have asked for a twek in the contrast, but his has a nice moody feel theat might be lost if you did so.

Nice work.

This really is a beautiful shot, brings to mind the style of one photographer whom I will not name because I'm still a newbie here and I'm probably wrong :) At first I was bothered by not being able to tell what the resolution might be without reading the title, but its such an incredible photo I'm not going to let that bring the score down, back to bump up before the final tally in an hour.

I think shooting photos like this would be alright! I know what you mean though, I have that problem as well. I take tons and tons of photos and I know that most of them are crap but I can't help myself and it takes away from actually partaking and enjoying in where I am and what I am doing, esp. the peace of a voyage into nature. The only problem with this beautiful image is that some of the dodging and burning is a little obvious in areas but I don't really mind that sort of look. 10

There is something lovely about this image and yet there is something that is far removed from real nature. However, the impression is strong. It has the feel of an oil painting and in this sense it excells. Bumping up.

Hmm, mine is the reverse: Stop looking, start shooting. :)

I like the dark mood and how the stream and sides of the hills leads me down. The clouds in the sky are not of a very interesting nature, I don't like it how they look. The orange and green colors of the foliage however look quite interesting. 8

this is a nice picture but the title influences it too much for me.
