I miss the Oregon coast. You've done a magnificent job of capturing one of her more mysterious moods - the mist just slightly obscuring the rocky coast. I especially like the parallelism between the main land and the right main rock. And the solitary couple just adds a presence to the image.
One of my two favorites in the challenge. I already like it for the scene, the mist, the depth. But the two figures make it. Great sense of scale. I hate the sensor spot - bet you do, too, by now LOL - and the sky looks blocky but I suppose that's a compression issue. It's still one of my top images and I'm staying with a ten. I think it will score 6.8 and would score higher without that spot. Picky, aren't we?
I gave this an 8. I found this image very moving, especially with the scale of people versus rocks so clear. Plus the faded blues with a hint of fog, really nice.
Woah! I just saw the size of people to put it into perspective. This looks Oregon Coasty like.
great shot all around,the light , reflection, sense of scale, all very well done. I think this will end up over 6 and I will vote this at a nine. Good luck here
I think low-balling your prediction was not a bad idea - at least to appeal to voters. This image has the ingredients of a winner. Foreground, background and all the good stuff in between. The silhouetted characters and birds really give great context for letting the viewer know the scale. The slight cold tint doesn't hurt a bit - love the lines, shadows and tones throughout. prediction: 7.17
The teeny little people and even tinier birds create a reference for those monumental rocks. Really good and probably a high 6.67. I'll help with an 8.
Lovely place, pretty tones, and this kind of scene often does well. Think your score will be higher than your guess, especially since you have people and birds to set the size context, which I think is a bonus. 6.79
I love the scale of this picture.
your guess on score is pretty close, I would say
this landscape looks familiar.
I predict this to be Robert's image, and I predict a 5.8963 score
A very nice image overall. Just a few minor issues, it's a little blown out, and you forgot to straighten the horizon, it's ok I use to do that :0)
I love the two tiny figures really shows a sense of scale, I'm wondering if it would you would of been better off just cropping a quarter of the top off, not sure, anyway I'm bumping this up to a 7. Originally gave you a 5 first off.
I'm guessing your score will be a little higher than your guess maybe 5.966.
this one feels like a 6.5 to me, simply because of the people and the birds. What a surprise on scale! The only thing that I wonder is: is the horizon tilted a bit?
The first time around I had this in as a 6 then I noticed the people and bumped it to a seven. I like the scale of this. It looks so massive.
Nice!!!
Back to post my guess. 6.22
Hello, I voted a few days ago, now returning for comments. I think that you really under estimated your score, this is my favorite in this Challenge and I gave you a ten. I predict that you will finish a full point above your prediction at 6.8557 and it should be a ribbon contender.
7.4 Serene land/seascape. The muted grays, blues and blacks (can black be muted?) beautifully contribute to this feeling. The composition and the procession of planes lending depth are well-handled. I especially like how the aforementioned procession goes from small in the foreground to huge in the background (not counting the sky) -- birds, people, smaller rocks, larger rocks, and jutting headland.
.1 subtracted for sensor dust relic in the sky.
Ridiculously humble or exceptionally bad at estimating how this would do. Cool tones, glimmering contrast, a story with two characters in the Pacific Northwest mist (I believe). Excellent stuff.
