Well first of all congratulations on your score, a 6.5 is really good.
This shot is really well composed, I love the huge frame with the small subject because it kind of breaks away from the norm, which works well with the subject. The textures of the window are really nice, and the colours of the scene in back really pop next to the desaturated frame.
Compositionally, this shot is sound. I like the centered mountain because it leads your eye right into the scene. I like that the image is broken up into lines by the clouds, then the mountains, then the field because it contrasts with the vertical frame.
This is a great shot that suited the challenge well. Good job.
I have a hunch this is taken in iceland :) Not really digging the HUGE frame with such a small subject. ALso the subjct is good but the sky isn´t great, maybe you should have waited for an even later time of day to take this but above average in the challenge, got a 6 from me.
lots are using this semi-desat. look works best here. this shot has a simple grab to it that won't let the eye wander to far. nicly done. great colors and nice B&W tones
great DoF and focus also
Excellent earth tones! I might have cropped a little tighter to reduce the amount of wall. Also might have tried a higher angle to get the horizon at the 1/3 mark.
I think that's one of the bests. I like the composition and the landscape. It really meets the challenge. The colour and light are well done. It seems also to have movement.
Wonderful!. Excellent colours and textures combination. The composition es great too and everything focusing on the hill. Good luck, it is one of my favourites.
