Hi Bryan,
Great view great colours nice and sharp. Well done and tfs.
Regards

Bryan, yes you should always remember to look behind you, that is when you get some of your best shots.

Good POV, nice lead in line with the path and good exposure.

Magnificent lead in to the mountain Bryan. Excellent work. I added a WS (colored Jenny) as you requested :-)

Hi Bryan... I'll be honest with you here, the horizon split at 50/50 just does not work well. I know it's difficult to get the tree on the right in if you follow the rule of 1/3rds - but I think it would look a lot better without all of that sky.. Some rules are difficult to break well (if you know what I mean).
Also the light is harsh - you'll find that landscape photographers will shoot very early or very late in the day (as a rule), especially grassy rolling hill scenery like this...
I think I would move forward a little to get the tree out of the way - then you wouldn't be constrained by trying to fit it into the picture, then maybe swing the camera a little to the right and have the track on the left rather than just pointing to dead centre...
Hope this helps..

Hi Bryan,
i find the dark shadow from the trees that breaks the path a bit distracting.. (imho)
would probably have gone for a tight long lens shot with only using the centre portion just above the shadow on the track.
good one, but feel its maybe a bit wide for the content.

Hi Bryan
A lovely view and wonderful countryside.
It looks like it was a very peaceful walk.

I like the open space and green freshness here, not to mention the inviting path over the rolling landscape. Well framed by the trees, and pleasant shadows here-and-there. Beautiful scene and good shot:)
