Ella - a well framed and well captured image. Aside of the fisherman I am attracted to the circular ripples in the water. Marginally darkening the sky would inprove the image, but basically it's OK as it stands.
FWIW - Nik CEP Darken/Lighten Centre is an adjustable vignetting tool which I use on every single image I process - my use is very subtle in that the layer needs to be switched on/off to reveal the effect. |

Ed - I am a sucker for spiral staircase images - looking up or down and this image appeals. The repeating curves and radii are very pleasing.
I don't have a real issue with the lower window although it could be toned down a bit.
Re. Nick's suggestion to try Nik CEP Tonal Contrast I would suggest using Pro Contrast which gives you more control. |

Nick - a fine image of Estero Peak with great tonal range. To be hypercritical I would like to have seen a little more of the white cloud above the peak and I feel that the dark foliage in the lower right tends to drag the eye and could be lightened a touch IMO. |

I like the simplicity and dynamism of this image and the mirroring of the shapes around the join between the two elements.
I agree with Ella that lightening the structure would create extra impact, but I am in two minds about darkening the sky as there is some detail in it. |
