The misty morning Sea (pic1)

Hello guys...

This is the first picture I am sharing in the TPF for getting your valuable comments which may help me become a photographer one day.

Please know that I took this picture with 5mp phone camera and did some editing with photoshop.

Thank you

Take just a tiny bit off the bottom, and a tiny bit off the top. Move the sun a bit more to the right in the frame. Nice photo.
Exposure looks pretty good except for a hot spot in the clouds in the center.
Do you have a graduated neutral density filter?

That's actually pretty darn good for a camera phone.

A couple things to think about when shooting landscapes:

-You typically don't want your subject centered. There's exceptions, but I think it would look better with the sun more to the right.

-A good landscape uses both background and foreground elements. I've heard it said that a good landscape is an interesting foreground piece with the actual landscape as the background. Sunsets are pretty, but with some foreground interest they can be amazing.

Sometimes the rule of thirds just bores me to tears.

Yeah, that's an older picture of me my wife took. I don't have too many pictures up there right now due to some technical issues, but I'll try to fix that when I get a chance.
