Stunning work!

Excellent exposure.. Did you use any filters? (Grad ND?)

Or was the light "Just right"

Did you shoot raw? What Glass?
(aka more info please :) )

Thanks mate. Using the kit lens, mostly at 18mm. No filters but I did bracket (all shot in RAW - 170+ photos) and merge in photoshop. It was overcast but as the sun was setting the sky cleared up and the light was beautiful.

Thanks for checking them out :)

Cheers,
Owen.

I like this one - very good. Other ones are good as well but that one is my favorite :)

Thanks Hlop, although it's not well defined in that pic I think it kinda leads the eye with the rocks and then the clouds.

Thanks for commenting.

Owen.

Owen - #3087 does it for me - fascinated by the bench :D

They are all excellent shots from a composition point

owen, outstanding stuff. I love the fact that you are taking landscapes in "portrait/vertical" orientation. Number 1 (3136) is my favourite, but I like them all. Really good work.

Thanks Chris and Greg. I really appreciate the comments. These were taken after a landscape photography workshop, so I guess the lesson worked well :)

I'll say it worked well. Those are terrific shots. On the bench one, I wonder what it would look like with more foreground and less sky? Not a critique, just curious.

Looks like you got the right knowledge and light and landscape for a winning combo. Great pics.

Hey Dooda. I'll have a look amongst the collection when I get home, there could be one that has more foreground and less sky as I took many shots of the same scene.

Thanks for the comment.
Owen.

Owen. They're all pretty impressive, but the trailing clouds really make the shots they're in. Plus I'm ashamed to say, I've never thought of doing landscapes portrait :oops:

I would have to agree with sirhc55 3087 is the pick of them for me as well brilliant.
