Scenic Photographs

Okay, I just thought I'd post some random pictures of scenery and others Sorry they're so big. That was kinda an accident

I think this is in British Columbia. No idea where though.


Reflections.


Another reflection. I was having fun taking these pictures.


Two deer grazing. I was in a moving vehicle so I know it's a little blurry.


Little waterfall. I love the sound of running water ^_^


Another mountain picture.

Okay, I'm a little biased- these pictures remind me of where I grew up. But I'll try to get some constructive criticism in here!

Number 1 Pic:
I really liked how the lay of the land pulled your eyes in on this one, but it looks very grainy and faded- like an old photograph or even a painting. This could work for it, but as far as the foreground of trees I think it would be better if it was more detailed. I don't know what you can do about that though, but it was the only thing I found lacking.

Number 2 Pic:
I love how clear the reflection is! At first I thought the photo was upside down, but then I saw the ripples in the pond at the bottom. I would say the trees look rounded because of their height, but that's just the way they grew. And I kind of like it anyways.

Number 3 Pic:
The middle tree looks really really cool because of the way the branches are thin and highlighted by sun. It was hard to tell that this is a reflection though, so at first I was again confused. But I like the hazy amber glow it has and how every branch is sharp and clear.

Number 4 Pic:
As you said, a bit blurry and undefined but that's understandable. This one really didn't catch my eye though, because of how small the deer are in comparison the background. They also blended in a lot, but, again, I don't see how that can be helped...

Number 5 Pic:
My favorite!! The water is so clear and the composition is fantastic. It has a kind of motion, like if I stare at it long enough I'll hear the water flowing. Good job!

Number 6 Pic:
Kind of grainy like the first one but still a great view. One thing I found distracting was that the bottoms of the trees were cut off so much they just barely stick out. It looks rather odd because of how different in color they are from the other trees. Still I can't figure out how to fix that, so I guess it's not all that helpful to point out.

Overall: fantastic job, they all convey a natural mountain feeling that I'm quite fond of.
