I love those shots! Especially the second one - the sky looks amazing - somewhat surreal!

Beautiful work!!! Fascinating culture.

Since no detailed critique is requested for these two photos, and since there are two instead of only one for which some very detailed critique is being requested, I move these to the General Gallery.
(Guidelines concerning posting photos to Photo Critique are here ).

First one, looks like a banjo players dream!

Both are great, and if you saw them without reading, you wouldn;t think they were from the UK

JEazy · Sep 17, 2006

Sorry for such a n00b question, but is that sky effect from the polarizing filter?

Looks like I need to get myself a Grad ND !!!!

Very Nice captures....Knowing when to use a tool and when not to overdo it is a hard thing to learn, looks like you have it down .....
