Emma...
Another fine & moody composition!
I'm impressed by textures in spite of full zoom, right?
Yes I think you need that contrast here, and th tree popping in from lower right corner is sooo nice!

Good shot Emma! I love the soft almost monochromatic colours here, and the low lying cloud really adds an ethereal quality to the scene. The reflections are nice too. As for contrast, looks fine to me. I also think you made the right decision with the tree on the right - although I wonder whether having a bit more of it in shot would be better? Anyway, a lovely capture - thanks for sharing :-D

I wonder whether an even more aggressive crop to remove the sky completely would work - thoughts?

I think this one is even better. I love the extra contrast and I like the tree on the right - I think it gives some perspective - may be we could even have seen a little more.

Hi Emma,
Another fine cloudy photo. I have to agree with Pablo, the contrast works out fine perfectly and the I do like the tree on the right. I do feel that when you had left it out the photo would less depth. It is really cool to see the reflections of the trees in the lake.

Beautiful atmosphere in this foggy landscape. The cropped tree in the FG leaves it a bit imbalanced. In a perfect world there would have been a whole tree in front on a third. In any case, a great shot with good impact.

Very nicely done Emma, I love the atmosphere you were able to capture in it. Very good composition, I would have maybe cropped the branches at right to have a more homogene compo. Contrast is very good to my taste. Thanks for this good post.

Hi Emma,

I like this version even better. I know what you were trying to achieve with the right hand tree but I don't think there is enough of it.

Hi Emma!
Your landscapes are marvellous and this one is no exception.
Thanks for your visit. Having my home in the Himalayas, I find quite a bit of affinity with Scottish Highlands. Needless to say, I love this picture.

Hi Emma,
I think the contrast is spot-on, I like this one the most. A really nice calm shot, and I like the addition of the tree at the right which adds more contrast. Nice shot.
Cheers,
Adrian

Hi Emma,

After looking at the three landscapes I think that this one is my favorite. The calm and still of the water moving up towards the rugged tree lined landscape - perfect.

Well done.

Hi Emma, I agree that this is the best of the 3. Just love it! There is more lake on this one, dreamy atmosphere. About the tree on the side I do think that a bit more of it or none at all would be better, or a bit more in the angle. Your landscapes are great!! So mystirious. Thanks for letting us enjoy them.
