I love how you got the sun flair in the first two images.

Lots of interest in #1. The back ground is a touch distracting, though goes well for a dog.

To me #2 is a very strong image. Love it! I wouldn't mind some fill light though. (tough to do with pets)

#3, is fine, but nothing really that strong to keep my attention. I see you were trying to get that outcrop with the wooden thing (gazebo?) to be the foreground. I would say to keep working the area and keep trying different compositions.

#4, though i like the sun flair, i don't think that there is quite a strong enough subject.

all of them are very nice!

1 might be cropped to put the subject off center a bit more. nice cairn. :D

2 awesome

3 nice sense of solitude. makes me want to vacation there.

4 excellent exposure. I can see this being used in a commercial setting or ad/magazine thing.

I really like the first 2 shots of the dog. I'd probably crop a little off the sky in the last 2 shots since there's nothing going on up there, but allows your viewer's eye to wander there.

I like $#2 a lot.

# 3 looks like it's leaning to the left a bit.


Just shut up and smile...

#1 woulda been a winner were it not for the fence and the Inukshuk wanna-be. I like #2. Tried #3 in black & white yet?

1. Great subject pose and surroundings. I might like it better without the sun flair.

2. I know sun flair is essential to the image, but it's overpowering for me.

3. Excellent composition and subject. The subject texture really pops.

4. Beautiful image, sun flair is perfect.

Just my humble opinion.

#2 is best for me. Love the sun flare and the highlighting on the dog. You also have good level of detail in the shadows.

#3 is next best, like the contrast and strength of colours, like the composition.

#1 like this, but a bit busy.

#4 good PP, but nothing really of interest in the shot. You also have quite a bit of CA on the left hill.

I really like #2, but am not a fan of any of the other ones.


Constructive criticism is always appreciated.
