    I am not crazy about the composition of the first two. I think the second one needs to be wider but you were probably doing all your lens would allow. The last two are very good. The treatment on composition on both are very good. I have never been much for jet streams in the sky but what do you do? Maybe clone it. But still very good. Being in Atlanta you should make a trip to Resaca Confederate cemetary. All of the soilders were buried in a circle. It is a unique place to visit.

    I like 2 and 3, but I don't particularly favor the two trees as the subject of #1. Is the last a true infra-red, or an edited infra-red?
    mostly Nikon gear

    Feel free to edit my images for critique, just let me know what you did.

    the second to last does what i love of tone mapping. It brings out the sky texture. I like it a lot. Some of the others I interpret through my aesthetic and I want more dramatic light manipulation. But many of them are very good.

    Greg: I've been to Resaca, but not recently. Might try to take a ride up there soon. Andersonville is also good, but far away.

    n8:Not much I could do about the trees, unless I wanted to get rid of the engraved curb, which I kind of like. The infrared in post processed in Lightroom 3. Can't afford a deicated IR camera.

    daq7: I'm still learning HDR. Only been doing it for a couple of months. Still got a ways to go, but they're getting better every time I shoot.

    Thanks for the input!
