Sunset + Waterfall

[colinuk]

Still good shots... but you did ask for C&C

sunset pic....

1) straighten the church tower please...
2) take them branches out - or crop so they are not in, personal hate of mine lol as it takes your eye from the rest of the pic as all you see are branches, imo of course.
3) but some more blue in that sky please..

waterfall...

Being picky here...

1) on the right of the water fall is a concrete wall, clone out the branch where the wall turns to the waterfall.
2) remove the branch from the water fall that is on the main face towards the left.
3) Put the colour back, looks a lot better to me.
4) remove the boulders from the left of the wall next to the waterfall [crop]

Again, these are my views and in no way am i saying they are correct. But a little tidying up and they go from good shots to show stoppers. love the water around the rocks.. not sure but i think the highlights at the top of the waterfall are a little to bright...

But to be honest, i am as picky on my picks too, nothing personal and feel free to disagree

Overall mate id give you a 8/10 for them two good effort.

I think the sunset framed by the branches is better!

Just goes to show how composition is a personal thing, what works for you could be someone elses pet hate

Very True Big.Wayne, why i though i had better mention is just something that I hate and he may like lol..

Hard to get a photo that pleases everyone, always someone at the back of the room who says, err but what if you.... lol.

I try to be honest in C&C and never just point out bad/wrong/bits i dont liek without a way to make it better. Still, over all i think the pics are very good
