February 29th, 2008 at 8:47 amThe reflection is certainly beautiful but too much contrast for me in this one.

February 29th, 2008 at 8:55 amBookending due to the dark clouds and their reflections makes an average landscape scene special.

February 29th, 2008 at 2:07 pmBeautiful, kind of a “dreamy” quality to it! Nikons and thier users take the best shots! Like you took a pair of brushes and painted the whole thing! Love it! Congratulations on photo of the day!

February 29th, 2008 at 3:18 pmWow, really cool. It looks like you put some great planning into this picture. I love how the sky has both the storm clouds and the white clouds. Then the blue separates the two beautifully.

February 29th, 2008 at 7:23 pmEverybody is really enthusiast, so it must be me … I am not that thrilled and I find the dark parts too dark, the light parts too light and I also think the saturation is a little too much. I do like the scene as a whole though.

February 29th, 2008 at 8:00 pmI too am not pleased with the saturation. It’s a nice photo, but routine, and kind of boring.

February 29th, 2008 at 10:42 pmSome people are hard to please but I guess it depends on what you like in a photograph but again it`s a personal thing. To me this is my kind of photograph,just superb.

March 1st, 2008 at 12:45 amThanks everyone for the feedback. I can see some things now in the photo I never noticed before. I did add some saturation, but not that much. It really was stunning that day. I can see that the dark in the bottom corner is distracting as well. The contrast is a little high in the white clouds. I shoot RAW, so I almost always have to edit some. But I guess that means maybe I can go back and re-edit the image and make it better.

March 1st, 2008 at 3:47 amThe dark clouds on top and white fog enveloping the mountain make a wonderful picture.

March 2nd, 2008 at 1:53 amHi Mark,
You’re on your way to making more and more good ones like this. You will find that the more you exhibit and show your creativity and images, you’ll find more acolades and more critiques. It’s the natural way of this thing we call art photography. And do not forget art is SUBJECTIVE. What I find stunning someone else may find boring or routine.
And don’t forget that. Keep shooting that Nikon It’s a great shot, keep reading and learning, it’s a great journey. -
