>>2944592Good editing to make the clouds look so dynamic, but definitely at the expense of any realism (and a bit of tree masking / gradient fade out in the mountain). The two tall evergreens are good for framing but the out of focus branches on the bottom right are a bit of a pain. It makes a great thumbnail.
>>2944594At first I like it, but the more I look at it the more little things annoy me. A bit heavily baked for sure. Top half of the pic is great, lake is nice of course, but the rest is busy / boring and really inconsistent.
>>2944595The best shot, good layering, fairly clean editing and natural colour tint. The snow in the sun is a good white balance, and the cyan layer of trees isn't too cyan. Props to the layering again. Foreground is perfect height to balance the rest of the shot.
>>2944834This is too cyan though. Calm lake and all, and i know it's pretty impossible to be original here, but abusing the colour isn't helping it stand out.
>>2944838Better, I always think the boats make a good foreground, but in this case too scattered and random. The reflection at the bottom is an eye catcher. Might have been a different angle that exaggerated that and the boats that would work? Maybe lying right on the ground bottom left?
>>2944843Why does the sharpness / contrast drop off to terrible near the right 10% of the picture? Shame there's no good foreground because that was a pretty amazing timed rainbow / sun spots on the mountains.
>>2944878just bad.
