70 Oct 18 Comment Thanks for the comments. Agree it might be a nice moment but needs a focus point or subject. I was drawn by the contours defined by the shadows. Oct 28th
70 Oct 18 Comment What a rewarding view after the climb! Very nice. Like the effect of your choice of slow shutter. Shows nice motion of the clouds but not too much. Oct 19th
70 Oct 18 Comment I like the way you cropped in to focus on the unusual and distinctive trees. Nice leading lines back to the jogger. Oct 19th
70 Oct 18 Comment Love love love the contrast between the horizontal rough textured shale layers and the vertical silky water ribbons. The walkway adds a nice accent.

I considered going to Watkins Glen this fall but didn't; wrong decision! Next year......

70 Oct 18 Comment Agree image doesn't meet group guidelines but I am here to learn so here goes. Very busy scene; lots of people, signs, color, cars, bright blue sky.

In Lightroom I cropped to simplify composition, used radial brush to lighten the subject jogger to draw eye to her and darkened area around her to de-emphasize it. Converted to B&W again to simplify the busy scene. Added vignette.

70 Oct 18 Comment Lovely view worth getting up for. Shooting at f3.2 didn't produce a nice star effect of the sun caught in the tree branches; a smaller f-stop such as 18-22 could have but guess that wasn't what you wanted. Sharp focus appears to be on the spruce trees on the left hillside; foreground grass is soft. I particularly like the tree silhouetted against the sky.

I took it into Lightroom and cloned out some distractions and dehazed the sky.

70 Oct 18 Comment Fantastic field of yellow wildflowers! I feel you stopped and drove the car back to shoot it in spite of it being a bright sunny afternoon. When I try that there never seems to be an easy turn around or a safe place to pull off the road. Good job! And you remembered the ND filter!

Nice floral foreground well handled, in focus, pleasant distant views, nice clouds, peaceful mood.

I too am drawn to the bright area in the upper left corner. The light on the central mountain is lovely, but the mountain appears smaller than I feel it should. I'm guessing this wide angle view was created close to the 17mm end of your lens as the mountain seems a bit diminished in size; shot at 40mm would narrow the view but show a bit more magnification of the mountain.

Pierre's crop also emphasizes two nice leading lines of dark green foliage adding to the sense of depth.
