Tahoe Blue

Nicely balanced

Just throwing this one out there since I haven't posted a critique

request in a while...comments appreciated, thanks!

I've been looking through all your photos and they remind me of paintings, in particular (since I'm Canadian) they remind me of the Group of Seven. I found some paintings by these artists that are interesting comparisons. This one is F. H. Varley - Stormy Weather.

A well composed and moody photo!

I like the light and colors very much. Nice picture.

Nice scenic. Using the ND to darken it up was a great touch. It would be great to take this same shot in the winter with some snow on those rocks.

 

The rocky peninsula and tree nicely balance each other and lead out into the lake and the sun brightened clouds. Very nice.

 

Is that the rocky point over by Sand Harbor (looking SW across the lake)?

Very, very nice! Colors are sweet and so is composition. I agree it looks like a painting, which in this case is a good thing :-)

Thanks for the comments! Christine's comparison is particularly interesting. Very cool!

 

Mark - yes, it is.

Good landscape! I'd like to see some more details and emphasis of the snowy mountains.

I think this image has good potential.

It would benefit from a little cropping on the weak left side and a burning in of the tones in the sky.

Naw, cropping on the left would weaken the image. The peninsula of rocks is a strong feature, and they would get cramped. I would be tempted to try widening the image on the left, thus placing the tree comparatively closer to the edge. This is my favourite image in the folder.
