Some of my favorites, not edited yet looking for PP and composure advice.

Basically what the title says, these are just older favorites of mine that i'm looking to use to help me figure out what and how to edit and also want to know what I could have done differently and what about them works if anything. Let me have it so I can learn from my mistakes and use it to take better pictures in the future and also so know what I should edit and how.

1. I know it could be better if it was not cut off, even though I like it that way for some reason (I'm weird I guess haha) is there anything else I could have done differently, the cut of wasn't intentional I just don't have much time to pause and tend to shoot asap with animals.

2. I think I also edited this one, oh well so much for not having edited anything I guess you guys can CC my editing too

3. I was told to crop the ground, and fix the over exposed cloud (I did edit this one a bit, just the color and sharpness but it most likely could be better) anything else?

4. Think I also adjusted the color and sharpness on this one, will double check later. Also I know there is a lot of blur on this one and number 5, I didn't notice it at the time of the pictures and I know there is no way to fix it so is there anything I could do to save the photo?

5. Same here as 3 and 4. (Can I save it from the blur?)

First impressions:

#1. Not my cup of tea, so no comment on this one.

#2. I might try and get a bit more detail in the sky and straighten the horizon - it is tilted to the left slightly.

#3. nice snapshot, but it does nothing for me.

#4/5. Only comment here is that the green colour in the vegetation seems to be a bit oversaturated and the sky is blown out. Not sure what you mean by "the blur". Is it a matter of sharpening the images a bit? Don't know. This "blur" may also be an artefact of "shrinking" the image for posting on the web, although I have never had that problem.

#4 is not that bad from a compositional perpsective. The lines of the waterfall and the rocks guide the viewer's eye through the picture. It is what some would call "an intimate landscape". #5, on the other hand, does nothing for me.

Cheers,
