Landscape Norwegian landscape (my first dslr pics)

Norwegian landscape (my first dslr pics) · 09:56 AM

Hi!

These are some pictures taken in July in the general Rogaland area of Norway. These are some of the first pics I have taken with a dslr camera. Tell me what you think

Nice scenery, I like #5 and #3. (need to straighten #4 a little)

I like them, keep it up.
Some of them are shot under very plain sunlight - you might want to try more complex skies (colourfull clouds, morning/evening light).
In such feature rich landscape as Norway it should be easy to use depth composition to improve photos - try to include distinct foreground-middle part-background scene structure in your pictures. It increases the feeling of presence. Similar like in 1st and 2nd.

I really like the last one. THe others locations have so much potential with the right light. Well done. JIM

I see your landscape is quite similar to mine: green hills and mountains. In my experience is better to cut the sky as much as you can, specially in summer. It only adds some zones of light that disturb the colours and contrast. I like very much the last one.
