The hotspot on the first photo is unfortunate, otherwise a lovely shot.

Cropped and toned down your hotspot on photo #1. What do you think?

Wow- that was a great edit IMO!

Love the texture on the first pic of the grass and the colors. The second is very grainy- guessing it was the low light. Looks like your setting out the right way, picking up a camera and taking pictures of what is beautiful!

Thanks all for your views.
1st snap is just before sunset..hence there is a hotspot..without it, i feel it would have been a plain pic of nature..
can u show editing with hotspot??

taking out the sun ruined it for me. I feel it made the pic.

i would suggest straightening the horizon on both shots... I try to do that with every landscape, sunset, and the like photos I take... I may miss when taking the shot, but before I share it, I straighten it...

Yes, there are some exceptions, but I feel like I am falling to one side or the other depending on the angle when I see an angled shot... it tends to lead you out of the picture....
