Hi Tony,
If you embed the photo in the page (I had to click the link) you may get more replies. As I don’t use postimage I can’t say how exactly you should do this, but I right-clicked the image and got the direct link to the image http://www.postimage.org/gx4sVDA-6e0bb60443f2c16f003f20199b35654c.jpg. I put it between the img tags and it seemed to work, but I’m not sure if your hosting site guarantees a static link.
On to the photo, certainly a beautiful place and not a bad photo but I think it lacks in composition. There is no strong focal point here. But there are a lot of beautiful things in the photo. It is always hard to say when you are not there, but it looks like if you were more to the left you could have gotten the mountain more isolated from the mountain behind and so stronger in the picture.
I think you should have more of that beautiful sky in the photo, even if it made everthing a bit smaller in the frame. the mountain doesn’t have enough air at its peak. And blue sky with clouds is wonderful. The idea of 4 stripes of colour would be stronger then.
Now I’m not an expert in landscape, I’ve hardly ever taken landscape photos, a post in the landscape section might get better tips.Martin
Hi Martin,
Thanks for the comments and advice. Posting images has challenged me a bit. I have followed your instructions and a tutorial from PI. Seems to have successfully uploaded from Flickr in larger size. I think that i’m still missing something though.
I take your point about re-composing to include more sky. As I recall there was a huge snowfield directly in front of the frozen lake. I simply could not tear my eyes or the camera lens away from it. I will be wiser the next time, ie take 20 photos of same
Appreciate your advice and comments,
Tony
