[QUOTE="ohkphoto, post: 27387, member: 1573"] It looks like it was a wonderful trip, Dave. I can tell you which one's I find appealing based on composition and balance, #1 and #10. As for which one you should pick for an enlargement, only you can decide that. Which of those photographs evokes (for you) the same emotion as at the moment you took the photo. Are you wanting to display a memory, or simply a photograph at its technical best? I do have a few suggestions for you that might make it easier for you to pick your top photo. 1. Do a little more post processing work and cropping to make the pictures pop a little more and not have the horizon bisecting the photo. Also experiment with the white balance. Some of them have a blue or greenish tint. Also the horizon is tilted in many of them 2. After you've done #1, look at each one and see what appeals to you the most, emotionally and artistically. Part of being a good photographer is knowing which ones to toss and having the courage to do it. 3. If you've narrowed it down to 3-5 and still can't decide, hold each one up to a mirror and look at its reflection. This is a fun project, so enjoy and good luck! Let us know what you pick! [/QUOTE]
