36 Apr 21 Comment I think you did a great job with the post processing. I like how the form of the clouds mirror the shoreline, add balance to the image and are mirrored in the water. I am torn on the crop. Definitely the wider aspect works better. However, the grass foreground appears too heavy to me. Cropping it some put the horizon in the middle which does not work so I would consider cropping up strongly from the bottom to see how that works. Apr 10th
36 Apr 21 Comment I think the composition is really strong - the boat is framed by trees and grasses, the important elements are on the thirds which add energy to the scene, and the moody fog really adds to the image. It could be my monitor, but it appears to my eye that there is a bit of an artifact around the near tree and the tree line which may indicate over sharpening. Again, it could be how my monitor is rendering the image. As a nit, I would consider cloning out the two orange buoys Apr 10th
36 Apr 21 Comment Nicely seen. I like how the fencing adds interest and draws my eye into the scene and the warm, side-lite effect. Regarding balance, I disagree on this one - to me, the warm, saturated colors on the upper right balance the road on the bottom left and the tree. I do agree that the road terminates a little early and another choice could be made for the sky. It the sky was really bland, cropping it out totally makes sense. If it had some morning color that could enhance the scene, I would consider added just a bit more of it. Still, it was a great stop. Apr 10th
36 Apr 21 Comment I like the composition with the full reflection of the mountains in the lake, the color palette and the foreground grasses to add to depth and place. As a nit I would have tried for a bit of separation between the clump of grass on the right and the reflection of the mountain. The snow in the grass is a bright spot and a distraction for me. I would consider cloning that out.

36 Apr 21 Comment I like the composition and the slight crop you did of the sky. The post processing emphasizing the darkness makes sense to me.
My suggestion is to have the light come more from the right or left. It appears the lighting is mostly front lite which flattens the image. 		Apr 3rd
36 Apr 21 Comment Another great story to go with the image. I agree the light from the right looks opposite of what would be expected with dawn emerging from the left, but it still works. I like the foreground and the tree which had a strong branch that leads to the Milky Way and helps form a triangle in the image and keeps my eye in the image. My only suggestion is to apply more of the dehaze filter in LR if you use that to create more structure in the Milky Way core. Apr 3rd
