That's a great progression from light to dark, and the silhouette looks awesome. The sun looks like a hole in the sky.

Great contrast of lighting!!!

Wow. What a great feel. Beautiful! Very peaceful... is that you? If it is, I'll trade you places! Good work.
:icond---b:
Yeah it's me :) The cumbrian lake district is such a beautiful place - me and my brother spent ages setting up shots like this!
:iconconcretefeather:
LUCKY! Gosh... that's no fair. Haha. :)

really nice, but u need to work.
Crop -10% left
work with levels/curves.
:icond---b:
Im guessing that means take 10% off the left side of the piece?

Why, exactly? I quite like having the two subjects (sun and person) offset, counterbalanced by the small bush in the bottom left.

And I have no idea what you mean by levels/curves. I'm an amateur, not a pro.
:iconircabbit:
I wish there was a little more at the bottom of the piece... I found myself trying to look at the center, where there isn't anything. I'm not sure if that was clear... maybe if the camera had been positioned a little lower so that there was a larger proportion of mountain in relationship to the amount of sky.

I very much like the colors in this one, the different shades of blue are very appealing.

And what's with all the carrots? What do they need such good eyesight for anyway? Bunnies, bunnies, it must be bunnies!

No, I agree, this is the exact moment I desperately wanted a wide angle lens - I really wanted to fit the sun and the ground in shot, but I just couldn't get the angle right.

Fair point though. Thanks

This is excellent, it brings back a flood of moments in my life where I feel the need to travel-- its excellent. Beautiful shot.
