I'd highly recommend cloning out the telephone poles in this image. That was allowed in this challenge.

Sharpness and detail are exceptional in this image. Very tranquil. Very soothing.

Nature is best

This is a very nice scene but lacks a central focal point. Adding something to the foreground for the viewer to focus on would add considerble interest to this composition.

The near foreground is a distraction to an otherwise stunning autumn image.

Skyscape

Good idea and nice composition. The upper center cloud is slightly overexposed and acts as a viewer distraction. The horizon is not quite level.

When the Gales of November Come Early

Great minimalist composition. Conveys a good sense of danger from the storms on the Great Lakes. Makes me hear Gordon Lightfoot telling us the story of the Edmund Fitzgerald right now.

Beautiful snow scene, great concept, not overexposed, very nice high contrast B&W. Vertical is not true in this image. You can see that if the trees were corrected to vertical (tops tilted back to the left) that the end of the deck would be straightened as well. A curiosity, though, is that front railings would be made even more unbalanced than they already are. Not sure why that is or how to correct it.

Especially like the lighting and the time of day.
