Some shots from last fall

I like the third one best since it is unique and those clouds are fantastic. How come the bottom portion of the sky is so different than the top half. It just seems strange is all, but still a great shot!

Wow that's some amazing light in #1!

2 is my favorite of the bunch. That being said, I think the strong color cast on all three is a negative.

#1 is incredible!

For me #1 is over saturated, #2 has some potential.

IMO #3 could use a brighter foreground with some burning here and there to give a it a stronger sense of depth, and the already dramatic sky could benefit for a mid-tone contrast boost.

I like #1, but I'd see if I could pull up the foreground trees to give more separation from the background and to emphasize the foreground subject in balance with the background.

You have a great shot to work with so you should be able to do a lot with it.

#3, the trees seem almost infrared in color, and washed out and maybe lacking in dynamic range to be able to do as much with it. If you can use layers to pop the sky (per above) while also adding depth and richness to the trees (what's lacking both in the original and also in the edit above) then it will be a great shot too.

I love #2. I would hang it on my wall.

The second photograph has a very submersed forest feeling. Very nice.

I like #2 the most. Minor editing in #1 would help with the amount of red hue in this picture. Overall some very nice photos.
