Image critique

1. I really like the way the fog is falling down over the trees because it makes it look like a waterfall. The colors are interesting but the white in the fog looks a little too bright in a few spots. Also the horizon is crooked which really bothers me. But the image is really interesting and it leaves me wanting to know what happened and I want to know more about the time when it happened.

2. This picture is not my favorite. The detail in the rock is neat and I like how the blurred rest of the image accentuates the fact that there is much detail in the rock but I don't like that it is really blurred. I think that if it had less of a blur it would make it much more interesting. It wouldn't be as much of hey look right here. If the image is strong enough to begin with it will draw the eye to the subject anyways.

3. I really like this view of the squirrel but if it was a better animal it would be a lot more interesting. I have a hard time getting a squirrel in action though so this is definitely better than my picture with the squirrel just sitting in the tree. I like the clarity of the face and hands but I think I would have liked to see more clarity with the tail also.

I took this on my Yellowstone trip. I really wish we were on the other side of him to be able to get a face shot of him but I really like this picture because you can tell the majestic quality of this bull. My settings were ISO 100 f5.8 TV-1/80. The colors were very bland so I decided that I liked the black and white better than the color.

I took this picture while we were in Yellowstone. I really liked the steam coming of of the water while the sun was coming up. I also liked the silhoette of the trees against the sky. If I could do this again I would try and use a filter to add more color from the sky because this looks very dull compared to the real life sight of the sky.

This photo isn't a nature photo but I really enjoy this picture and think that elements of it can be used in nature photography. I really like the silhouette of the trees and the skiier and I think the backlighting can be something to think about when photographing something of this effect in Nature not just in a sports setting.
