The skies look wonderful! How did you get that deep blue gradient in them?

My favorites are 3 and 4. The B&W shots are nice, but seem a bit too gray to me. I'd try a bit more contrast.

BEAUTIFUL first post, and welcome to the forum :mrgreen:

Thanks for the comments. I used a polarizer for the blues.

Is this better?

hmm, that may be a bit much. let me refine my comment--after seeing the edited one, I reetact that completely. It wasn't that it needed more contrast: the landscape actually looked quite good in the original. What made it seem gray was the darker sky, caused by the polarizer.
You know what, the more I look at it, the more I think I was wrong. Nevermind, keep the originals! I don't know why I didn't see enough contrast before, it seems to be there now. Good shots
