Loganlea Reservoir

any comments welcome. thanks to scottish water for letting me take my car so far up

the pentland hills (i couldn't have walked that far) and to simon butterworth for the tips!

Nice composition and colors
regards

I also like the composition, along with the colours in the sky, just a shame there was a wind on the water or you would have got some great reflections too, but in any case a very nice image.

 

Regards

Alf completely agree, I will possibly retry later in the year when the weather settles down a bit. Thanks for the comments both. Most appreciated...I've only been taking photos for a few months (although been a member here for a while)!

Okay, forgive me for being blunt here but you did ask for constructive commentary.

 

This angle has been shot millions of times and, to me, your photograph is not showing anything I haven't seen before. The perspective is a cliche. That's not to say it's a nice shot, it is but I think you should take a little more time to find some unique perspective that would elevate this shot to something extraordinary. You are certainly not lacking subject matter because it's a beautiful place.

 

My advice would be to push your imagination a little harder and create a shot that has your voice. Right now it looks like one voice in a massive choir.

 

Sorry to be harsh but these are words of encouragement I'm giving you.
