wrong time of the day.

#3 I like farmings, but this tree is pretty huge and the building is pretty far. have you consider cropping?
#1 good you introduced a foreground object but overall, it's a snapshot
#2 the best, nice leading lines, but I would cut the sky a bit

I like 1 and 3, 2 isn't doing much for me. The use of the ND is apparent.


Any way to add a touch more contrast in #3? i like the peekaboo composition, but the monument is a touch faint.

I have considered cropping #3, I was waiting to see what people thought of the original composition. I was thinking about cropping in to set the frame filled with the tree. #1 was just a snapshot that I just liked and figured I would see how others felt...lol

Thank you for taking you time and looking at these, I appreciate it.

I used a CPL on that one. That day was ridiculously bright out and I had to do something to get the sky back...... I think I may crop it some and make it more a pano style framing.

i agree, the time of day/lighting wasn't really helping you. i think #3 has some potential, but i would crop so that all you see is tree and nothing outside. might be interesting
