I'd like some feed back on these pictures, please
Woodsliv, it is definitely number 1 image for me. It just draws the viewer in.
I like #1. Great shot. Did you take these in California? If so, where?
AWESOME photos!! Really like 1 & 2. They also have great possibilities for additional presentations by simply cropping to accentuate different sections that can hold up well on their own!

I like them all but #1 is my favorite. Thanks for sharing.
They are all good, but the first one is outstanding. It looks like a Christmas postcard. I would make up one of those metal prints and hang it.

I really lik #1.. Good composition and tell a nice story and the blending of winters color is very good... That is for sure a pleasing tranquill wall hanger...
One of those rare times when donrent and I agree.
These are very good. But, I would crop or clone stamp or something No.2 get remove the building on the left.

I took the 1st one yesterday in the cloud while snowing. I tried to compose it with interest. #2 was just a cool shot of the bridge, #3 was just an inspiring shot to me Please let me know if it can be improved.
Yup, number 1... very nice indeed
I like the bridge in #2, but the building at the upper left destroys it for me. It doesn't fit with the mood of the image. I really enjoy #1 because it reminds me of home. I agree with one of the other responders that perhaps cropping it a little more tightly might be good. Third one doesn't cut it for me, and usually I'm a minimalist in my photography.

i especially like #1 .. i'm not a pro by any means... but i like the balancing? of close up bushes, then tree on left a bit farther away then to the right a bit farther still ... ie zig-zagging toward the top of the mountain
i wonder about the color .. is that by design (artistic?) i spent a few minutes on the colors via photoshop
Well, it just isn't fair that you can go out and find 3 such great subjects. Then to add insult to injury, you go and capture them with such talent.
#1 is special with no cropping. The bouquet of snow covered bushes in the front helps set the tone. (you might clone the person out of the photo. The fact she is wearing shorts doesn't add to the mood, lol.)
I like the touch of color and mystery the yellow building adds to #2. I do like Cajun's cropping of it.
#3 is great also in that it is just a beautiful pic. I agree with another poster that it maybe doesn't really tell a story, but I can't think of another "flag" photo I've seen lately that I like more.
I think Nos. 1 and 2 are really nice.

The thing about cropping the house out of the second photo is, with the house in, the bridge leads somewhere. Crop the house, it's a nice picture of a bridge... but so what? If I were to change the composition of that shot at all, I'd swing a bit to the left to bring the whole house into the picture. The right side could afford to lose a little. Now all woodsliv has to do is wait for those same conditions to see whether I'm right.

I like the first image the best. But you also asked about how they can be improved, so perhaps adjusting the white balance and/or compensation could help the 2nd and 3rd. If aperature priority was used for the first, try manual settings to get greater detail in the foreground.
Really nice interesting shots - not experienced to offer any useful advice but I liked these :thumbup: :thumbup:
