    All feedback appreciated. Loads of PP btw.



    Edit: Maybe if I cropped from the right also and kept the aspect ratio it would've been stronger? for some reason, i like the vastness of the right though. I only noticed the crop from right idea after i uploaded it.

    Re: Outlook

    I wouldn't crop it and if I did it would be more likely to be a little on the left.
    I like the placement of the hiker and how her direction of looking leads my eye off into the distance.
    Snow and sky are well done.
    Your 'loads of PP' statement make me wonder what it looked like before.
    Keep Shooting!

    I'd crop from some off the left and maybe a little off the bottom. I really like the vastness too!

    Wasn't your model cold?!

    Liban,

    I like the vast feeling here as well, but I don't know that the grey clouds and snow on the right add a lot to the overall shot. If you did loads of PP to this, it doesn't show - nice job.

    Re: Outlook

    Frog this is a composite of two shots. The good thing was, it was at the same spot with the same lighting so they blended really well. the background image is one shot and the guy's shot was another where he was standing to the left of this with a small building behind him looking at this scene here. Thanks man.


    Gracie, thanks for the suggestion. I'm sure he was a little cold. this was at the highest train station in europe and it's somewhat of a tourist attraction. Most people go up for a couple of hours and then descend back to the base of the mountain. There's a building to the left of this that is connected to a mall, restaurants etc. I was there in my shorts. lol.

    PC, thanks for the suggestion and the compliment.

    All your mountain shots so far have been lovely but this one is my favourite. I feel as though I am beside the person sharing the view right down that trail and into the valley. It needs no cropping for me anyway and you would have an equally excellent shot even if the person was not there.

    Sweet shot.

    I might crop it so the person was more to the edge and bottom to make it even more vast.

    Gret job.
