I'm always on the go in the summer and shoot a variety of things. Landscapes and such are still a struggle for me. Decided to post a few and see what you all think. Suggestions and comments are always welcomed.
The first one is a sunrise on Henrys Lake in Idaho.

This next one is of my father fishing into the dark as well most often do. I like dark sunsets so I typically shoot dark.

This next one is another late sunset in Island Park, Idaho. The light turned in a hurry and had to hurry this shot a little.

This is on a little pond in Island Park late one night doing a little fishing. Imagin that :)

This last one was here in Wyoming. Very nice little beaver pond with lots of eager Brook trout. It's been a good little get away with me and my little one.

3 & 4 are a bit dark for me, but i totally love 1 & 2--especially the silhouette--that rocks!

I like 1 & 2 a lot. I think 3 could be really cool if you cold brighten more of the water area leaving the far shoreline silhouetted. I like fly-fishing shots. I'd like top do more of pics like these.

Nice! Really like the sky and color in the first image!

The only one that I don't fall for is #4, as it lacks the drama of the others, but man, those first two are awesome!
it's a nice series of sunset images. The 4th one doesn't seem to fit with the others. I think it would work if you cropped it to a thin pano cutting out most of the sky and the bottom third of the pond. I really like the silhouette of the fisherman- very strong graphic image. The color banding in the 3rd one is awesome.

Those first 2 are jaw droppers, definitely right place and right time!

I really like #2! Fishing shots have a timeless beauty to them and this shows that well! Great skies in your images!

Ditto on what has already been said.
On #3, I'd suggest considering some significant cropping of the sky & left side and a bit from the bottom. I like it better zoomed in on the lake reflection and sky colors.

Nice stuff, Lynn. Some gorgeous colors in these.

Love the colors in the first four. Bet your father loves that picture you took of him!
Posted by Pam Colander on February 5, 2011 at 6:46 PM
The first two are definitely the best! I especially love the first
Posted by Jack Garrett on February 6, 2011 at 1:44 AM
Another vote for 1 and 2...good captures!

Hi Everyone, Thanks for all the comments. The first two were my overall favorites as well. The third was an awesome lightshow just wish I would have had more time to set up. It came an went in minutes and still had my waders on :). I will play with the suggestions that were made.
I appreciate all the comments and suggestions

Lynn,
Thanks for the images. My passion for fly fishing has cooled the last decade and your first image will help me get my pontoon out on the trout lake again.
