[QUOTE="Whiskeyman, post: 157141, member: 13556"] mikeh32217, I saw your post this AM, but couldn't answer it then. If I had, it wouldn't have said anything that hasn't already been brought up in this post. During my lunch, I took some time and walked around my office, looking for scenic calendars, and I found a few. What I saw was photos that were not much different than yours. One thing almost every one of them had was a strong central subject that captured and held the viewers attention. For the most part, they were very bright, so as not to be "moody". I believe that every single photo in these calendars is manipulated significantly from what was on the sensor in the camera. Either way, I could envision each of your two shots taking the place of some of the photos on the pages of those calendars. So yeah, you're a good photographer, all right. And likely your harshest critic, as well. Remember that there's no rule that says that you can't go back to the same spot with your critiques and try the shot again. WM [/QUOTE]
