    Re: Nature Shots

    1) I really like the first one but would like to see it warmer and maybe a little bit more saturated (of course, I could be wrong but it seems like that's what it needs)

    2) I love this shot but wish there was greater differentiation between the clouds, the sky, and the building in the background. They all blend in too much for me.

    3) I like the flower but wish the DOF was a little deeper.

    4) I haven't decided on the trees yet. Right now, I think the sky is too bright against the foilage, but I'll think on it.

    1) Good shot. Good framing, dof, and color.

    2) I really like this shot, well framed, i like how everything goes together so smoothly. Clouds are good, good exposure.

    3) Very nice, the shallow DOF gives it a sort of a softer feel. Fitting for a daisy

    4) This one is awesome, the overexposed sky works, the softness of the trees gives it a sort of a dreamy feel.

    Seems that most of these have dreamlike feel, (movie type, you know how movie dreams are hazy with soft lighting and stuff)

    Good shots.

    1) Very nice, I like the colors, the dof, your composition. The main piece of wheat in the foreground needs some more sharpness but that's about it.

    2) I see good potential in this one but I don't like the textured grass in the foreground. In fact, I would have cut this where the grass naturally change from textured to smooth and I would have included more sky instead but that is still a good picture. I like it's simplicity.

    3) I am not found of this one. It is an ok flower shot to me but it needs a lot more sharpness, and I don't care for the orange color cast.

    4) Good work. I like this one straight like it is.

    I think you have a very good "eye" for what is interesting. I really like these shots. My only suggestion would be to use some framing to set them off. Very nice.
