Here are a few shots I took on our trip to the hot springs. I would love to know what people think (good and bad)

Well, I'm sorry; can't say anything bad about these images, I love all of them, especially the first & last ones! All are absolutely stunning!

I am interested in the rocks in the foreground in #1, are those smaller ones glued on the larger boulders?

Thank you for the kind words Carol. As for the rocks, they are just balanced there.

Shawn, your landscape "eye" far surpasses mine...nice shots!

Beautiful. Great lighting in all.

A set to be proud of Shawn! Take a moment to straighten #2 though as it seems to be tilting down to the left.

Shawn ... love #1 for the balancing rocks. In my opinion, it could have been a better shot if you move to the left a little bit to balance the frame. But it's OK...it's your shot. And the last one is just superb. No nits about that one...

[Shadowman]

Nicely done.

[Stagecoach]

Very well done Shawn, a good series. No 2 & 3 are my favourites and there's a good use of the foreground in all.

No 4 is interesting in that the rock on the right almost appears floating.

I like all of them , very nice compositions

[smcrews]

Thank you all for the kind words. I really appreciate the input. Shane I see what you mean by #2 looking a little tilted.

The last image is stunning. The light pulls you into the upper left area in the trees and it feels like I am being taken some where. This may be a silly question but is the water moving towards the camera or away?

That is absolutely amazing!

[ajsmith]

Very nice. I like no.4, how the water leads you across the picture to the bright trees in the back.

I feel like the fly in the soup but…
• I see there is an issue with the WB in these takes! Frame #1 being the one
suffering the less from it!
• There seams to be an other issue with the DoF… the eye can't find an anchor.
• The horizon should be tweaked in 2 & 4

The very strong quality in these takes is, IMO, the layered composition. Very cool.

Yes. I like the last one too.
