    GUADALUPE

    Nice contrast between the dry desert-like area and the wet area. The sky color does not seem to be accurate, as there seems to be a bit of cyan cast to it. Overall, an enjoyable shot though. 

  1. I have been shooting seascapes for 23 years now and can say that the contrasting colors are really nice. However, the amount of motion blurr shown is excessive. Since the ISO setting (and shutter) for your camera could easily be used to stop the water,  I'm guessing that you wanted this look. I do like the framing though.

    This shot has all the makings of a nice tropical seascape, however the dark shade in the lower right is distracting and the string of pontoons subtracts from its natural look.

    Grand Canyon

    Contrary to popular belief, the Grand Canyon cannot be shot successfully with harsh lighting and a cloudless sky. It needs low light or snow or rainbows or lightning or sunset colored clouds or anything to give it drama.

  2. I like this shot but agree that it would do better with a 4x5 aspect ratio. Too much sky on top that doesn't add interest. Square is fine for many shots and I have been known to cut 6x7 to 6x6 because it suited the shot better. However, when 6x7 works better, I leave it alone.

  3. Very nice shot. To make it even better, I suggest having the forground flowers more in your face (have them closer to the camera if possible). Your portfolio is Pro quality.

  4. A classic landscape shot. Interesting forground, middle-ground and background. Nice layers going out to the horizon, giving it depth. This scene begs for a 4x5 camera with Velvia sheet film, although your Pentax did fine.
