That first one is amazing...

Did you use arpeture priority with a long shutter speed on it?

I love the depth of field and the colors.....great image.

The slow shutter speed helps to give good clearity. Interesting that when using a longer shutter speed a landscape shot with good contrast sometimes looks like a miniature diorama.

The colorful sky helps to bring out the foreground even more to give it a 3D feeling.

Must have used a ND or Circular polarizer too?

I actually thought it was a miniature set.

That first one would have been cool for the free study challenge. Very impressive!

I REALLY like that first one. Very good focus and dof. And I agree, it almost feels like you're in the picture. GOod job!

The second one- I don't know, just not crazy about it. Not because it's a bad picture, I just don't like the scene or something lol- don't take the personally!

That first shot is exceptionally nice. One of the more original renditions I have seen in here. Great job!
