The first is quite an interesting abstract Alex. I like the inclusion of the people in the second as it provides scale.

Hi Alex,

Nice shots here, you captured some very nice scenes here. I think if you cropped off the shadow area on the bottom of #1 it would make it even nicer. I think the bottom shadow distracts from the other layers. #2 is pretty cool with the people, it not only provides scale, but the two people are in sharp contrast to the trees which creates some cool visual interest.

I am enjoying the top "abstract" like pic. And contrary to Jim I like
the bottom shadow as, for me, it gives a balance, another dimension
(if I am saying this correctly) to the middle shadow. It completes the
picture for me...

The second picture is almost ethereal for me. I think I would like to see the
scene without the people, however...

Very well captured...

Hi Alex - I simply love all three of these. You did a great job with both composition and exposure and I look forward to seeing more !

Another place to add to my ever expanding bucket-list

P.S. We may be resurrecting our cancelled Xmas trip of last year to Istanbul this year now my wife is feeling much better, not sure if you will be around Europe at that time ?

Thanks Frogfish! Istanbul at x-mas is always an option. Namibia just delivers; landscapes, skyscapes, wildlife, always something interesting to photograph.
