Thanks for your thoughts Larry. I was trying to convey a diagonal corridor going from the lower left to the bright spot in the clouds behind the mountain. In my mind, that was the left to right idea, drawing your eye through the image to the bright sky. |

Hi Paul,
It certainly is difficult to make am image pop under these lighting conditions. I tried to work on in in lightroom and decided that it was too much work for the results that I got and if it was my image, I would have said to my self "get up earlier". I think that we have all been in a location that was at the wrong time of day and for some reason could not get back at a better time. It looks as if you are on the western side looking east so it may look interesting as the shadows are in the lower part of the hill and the upper part has the golden light. Vertical lines on an image often suggest stability or permanence such as in the architecture of a bank or post office and this would fit the Hadrian Wall, so I think that leading line direction is good. With the light more prominent of the hill part of the wall, it might suggest and endlessness to the wall. |

Hi Elizabeth,
Nice sense of depth as well and a nice job of keeping negative space around the tree on the right which is very important in my view. Probably worth darkening the sky with a neutral gradient to bring out the clouds more |

Hi Bob,
I have tried IR but can't seem to get anywhere so good for you. First of all, do you want the trees collapsing in. If not you might want to fix it in post. If I were judging this photo, I would like to be convinced that it was not a mistake but a conscious decision for artistic purposes. You should get rid of the dust spot in the cloud on the right. |

Hi Lloyd,
This is a beautiful scene with magnificent colors, depth, in focus, well balanced and a nice frame within a frame. That being said I would submit something for you to think about. What is the subject? In my opinion, the sky, the bushes and the lake is not a subject but a scene. The analogy that I use is of a play or an opera. If you go the the Met and sit in the audience the stage and scenics may be very beautiful but the star is the soloist with supporting actors/singers that are on that stage/scene. The same thing with our images. What/who is the star/subject? What/who are the supporting actors. As in the theater where lighting is going to draw you eye to the star and slightly different lighting going to the supporting actors, we can do the same for our images. This is a beautiful scene on my opinion but what is the star/subject? The lake, the bright orange bush on the lower left or the color on the far side of the lake? Why is the road there? Is it to lead you eye into the subject? Anyway, this is just one man's opinion and something to think about |

love it Larry. The colors of orange and blue really work for me, the sense of depth, the balance of visual weight between the massive mountains on the left and the white buildings on the right, the hist of an s curve as you look up the fjord. Good job |
