My attempt at Lanscapes

[Cosmic]

My eye insn't very sharp at catching decent lanscape shots; therefore, I tend to stay away from them lol.

But I took a country drive the other day over to Hopewell Cape, in New Brunswick. Sometimes known as Hopewell Rocks, or just "The Rocks", near the Bay of Fundy. When the tide goes out, there's huge "flower pot" dirt rocks, with trees still growing atop of them. Very beautiful. :):

Unfortunatly, the tide was in, so I couldn't get any shots of the pots (lol that rhymes). I did catch this shot. I liked how the cliff was obstruction the sun from hitting the entire water in the shot.

So here's the first shot of Hopewell...

As the sun was setting, I noticed an open field with untouched snow. It looked more like a body of water than a field of snow. :):

I :lust blue :D Nice shots, veeeeery nice! Would you mind posting them just a tiny bit bigger? :wink I'd really love to take a closer look! They are real eye-catchers, especially the second, well done! :clap

Breathtaking really! I especially like the light bouncing off the snow!

You silly, silly girl; Take as many shots like these as often as possible. They are fantastic!

[Cosmic]

Thank you all for such kind comments. :):

I do like the effect of the snow as well in the second shot, but I feel like I don't know how much sky vs land I should include in the composition of lanscape shots. :dunno

I'll post bigger sizes like Michiel suggested. I resized them smaller because last time they were really too big. Now they're too small! :rofl

Thanks again~

You're messing with us, right? Your eye for landscapes is plenty sharp, as these images prove. And if you're a beginner at these, then we're all in trouble. Great job. Really. :thumb

[Cosmic]

Thank you for the kind comments David. :):

I'm new at photography, as I only got my digi cam for Christmas. I'm still learning its various features (I'm not using auto everything anymore yay! :rofl), and I pretty much snap everything and everyone, then hope for the best! LOL

Again, thanks for responding.

Looking good:thumb :thumb :thumb Living in NB I am sure the landscape ops are plenty and your eye and skills will be razor honed.Your skills look pretty sharp to me right now.

Cosmic, you are in real trouble. You've got an excellent eye for composition. But that's not why you're in trouble. You're in trouble because you are going to outgrow that camera in two months and the next thing you know, you'll be drooling over $1500 Lenses. :rofl


Seriously nice stuff. Keep 'em coming.

Say, got a photo-sharing site yet? I've got a coupon for smugmug :deal :lol3

Thank you for the kind comments Shakey :): I can't wait to give it a go during Spring and Summer! :clap

So I guess unless we win the Lotto, it'll be this one for awhile.
