... appreciate and respect feedback from people like John, Russ and others...
The problem I have is in returning the favour - if you can call it that! I do not feel able to give constructive criticism, I either like a picture or I don't - and usually cannot tell you why. I also know from experience that a picture that I have taken and really like, might be for a reason that is not clear to anyone else who looks at it. (I am not sure that one should explain a picture when you submit it - it should be able to explain itself, don't you think?
...
Roberto, I too like your first two pictures, the second one would be great if it wasn't for the fence in the front right which I find distracting. I am not sure I would print any of the others though.
...
Of the three you have just posted I really like the last one, even if the foreground is a little "untidy". Perhaps a few meters forward would have taken them out of the picture?


Hi William, I appreciate your kind comment very much and agree with your opinions too.

Roberto, I'd consider shots 1 through 7 as tests, leading up to #8, which is the final product. The composition in #8 is very good. The diagonal of the mountain slope is echoed in the slope of the little shack's roof, and the curve of the walkway enfolds the focal point, which is the shack -- the hand of man. But I keep trying to visualize the scene in normal B&W, and I think I like what I see in that version even better than the IR version. The results of IR are always interesting, even though they always appear a bit forced. Here in my town there's a guy who does IR Rocky Mountain scenes in color and sells them out of a local gallery. The tourists love them. In any case, #8 is good shooting, a proper result from the earlier experiments. Bravo!

Wow. This last one is really nice. Best of the bunch, imo. You captured the light well. Good work!

#11 I kind of like. The big blank sky in #12 bothers me.
