Those are very nice, lovely colors and cloud formations. But, my fav is the one above. The backlighted wave is very cool. FWIW, if it were mine, I'd crop the left side and some of the top to enlarge and emphasize the wave.

Escapism,

Nice shots. You could consider underexposing in relation to these shots. There are few photos where detail in highlights is really missing ie first shots. I find that situation with sky shots done by myself quite annoying so I always make sure there is no overexposure. You will have more space to set requested mood.

Regards,

As always, fantastic. Superb pics, but seeing as this is about critiquing, and you asked mem, and i know you in real life, ill put my scalpel onto em! (who am i to say !)

#1. love it. Especially as i know how memorable that day of surfing was. *wink* Perhaps a tiny bit colder kelvin wise could bring out some diverse colours (you shot NEF yeah?) just an idea. But either way, superb.

2) Awesome colours, though i would consider boosting it a little to bring out more colour on the water reflection ... and compensate for the bottom left of the image which to me is a little underexposed, but

3) A tighter crop could be a goer ... for me the OOF reeds take up too much of the image.

4) nice. Straighten the horizon. Reckon #1 eats it alive though

5) Trippy colour.

6) Great, what about a pano aspect crop? straighten horizon

7) A smidge under exposed perhaps, but superb colour and very moody broody.


All great pics id be proud to say are mine, 1, 6, 7 id say are keepers I know you in person so you'll know most of the above is pretty harsh

Cheers mate, those are exactly the kind of ideas I love to hear. Having been a part of your work in the passed I value your input.
