Stunning sky and good picture in general. Reduce blue saturation on the boats and you will score high.

Elemental Splendor

I once learned from an expert landscape photographer that long exposure waterfalls are best photographed on a overcast day or at dusk/dawn. It will eliminate the burned highlights on the water caused by sun reflecting of the water. I think this one would score high if it hadnt been for the burned highlights on the waterfall because its a beautiful place and a well composed picture.

This is a well excecuted backlight paper picture. Fresh idea, diffrent from the other curled/spiraled ones. If you had removed the lit background in the upper right corner and the over exposed ares it would be a top contender.

Smoke

Its a good smoke picture, the shapes of the smoke looks really good. But its to small and the highlighs are to bright.

Its hard to see any clear shapes here, its to complex. You went to far on the saturation too, its shows on the blue flowers and red/yellow background sky. In another challenge and without the oversaturation it would do alot better.

I think this is a good idea and well composed. But the processing could be better, reducing the highlights on the leaves would help here.
