Took this last week on top of Bear Mountain in NY. The scenery up there is just breath taking, I had to share.

I like it but I keep getting distracted by the building in the background. If you could either photoshop it out or next time take the picture from the opposite angle to cut out the building. Otherwise it is great. Really has a great mood to it.

I can see what you're saying, but to me it suits the photo. That look out tower is part of the land, and in a way tells the story of where I was. Behind the camera where I took the photo is this gorgeous view of the mountains, and I guess knowing that makes the tower relevant to me. I appreciate the advice, but it this case I think I'm ganna keep it.

Bear mountain is gorgeous right now. I was there two weeks ago. I kinda wish I actually went to the top now, kinda got distracted by all the beer at Octoberfest. Next year I'm going up there , great pic

This was as far up the mountain as I got

Maybe a bit more contrast???

I like it, the only thing that bothers me is how bright the clouds to the right are, kinda make me squint when looking at the photo. I love that contrast on the bench and the ground, brings out the texture of the photo.

I like the contrast a lot. Makes it seem more rugid? I don't know but I like it a lot...good point on those clouds in the upper right though, little tweaking should help that

As far as contrast, maybe a bit more than the original but less than the edit. I too don't like the building and tree behind the bench because the left side of the frame is pretty much empty. If you go back there, try moving to the left so the building and tree are to the left of the bench. It will still show where you were, just from a slightly different perspective.

Yes, the tower shows where you were and is a nice element, just not in this specific composition IMO.

If I have time to reshoot that I will, because I agree it will look much better to the left. All the elements seem to be bunched together in this one. Thanks for the tips!
