Beautiful colors in the lake. I also like where you've put the clear spot in the sky. The larger version shows the detail in the darker areas very nicely.

The large version certainly shows the beauty of this landscape very nicely. I wonder if the clouds are looking a touch too grey?

Love the rich velvety greens on the slopes and the play of light. Beautiful and serene. Very nice

A beautiful scene. Really like the color of the water and the nice mood. I think as Kah Kit mentioned the clouds look maybe a touch gray, a little whiter might look even better. Still a wonderful scene. :smile:

The colors are great and I really like the broken light across the landscape. I also like your moment taken with the spotlight on the tree on the left. Gorgeous image.

Oh man, what a sweet scene, definitely one I want to visit before I take my dirt nap! Beautiful capture, but I might boost contrast a wee bit to give it a little more 'pop'.

Beautiful landscape. I love the pano format here. The clouds look a tad to greyish for me here but it's a wonderful shot as is

Love the colors here, Rick! The large version seems a bit soft though, towards the left? :confused:

Nice pano image Rick. I really like the colors here. I think the highlights in the sky could be brightened just a bit, since it appears a little flat. There is also some kind of blending artifact on the left edge where the mountain meets the sky.
