Lovely scenes, Jetson. Very nicely composed, all.
If I may....the shots all have a slight blue cast. Easy fix that will recover a lot of the fall color, too.....levels/blue channel/middle slider to the right 10-15 pct or so, to taste. See what you think.

Barry

Very nice agree with Barry all are very nicely composed and some wonderful Fall images here, very nice work

Ray Still

I tweaked the photos to get rid of the blue cast, thanks Barry.

Yers looks like your WB is out

These are sweet.
Really captures the colorful rural settings, especially Fall foliage.
My relatives are from W,VA, Doddridge County.

What region is this from ?

Thanks for posting
Dan

Very nice! I too agree with the color cast

Jose

beautiful, love the second one. It may benefit from a very slight contrast bump to the background.

lovely shots, looks like some purplish tint is on though. the last one looks fine - whats the name of that falls?

Good series Jetson. I like the comps in all of these and the colors are wonderful. I would like to see the color corrected versions. Great job with these.

Rich

Very cool compositions.... What a place!

Thanks, I did yet one more color correction to try to get a good balance...

Coming along after many previous posts, you must have gotten the color properly tweaked now, cause to my eye at least these look great! #1 is my favorite, the falls is a great foreground object to offset the wonderful trees and the mill in the background.

The only nit I would say is that while I totally agree with the need for some sort of a watermark on shots like this, yours is just a bit too distracting. Something with a background more able to blend in would work better IMHO. I am no expert, but I found a simple Photoshop action on the web for free that allows you to mark things but not be as distracting, and you can size it as you like. Rather than posting a sample shot of mine to show you and distract from your wonderful series, if you're interested you can find a link to my site from my profile and see examples of what I am talking about there.

Very nice set. I love the contrasting colors.

Great detail on # 3-4.

Falls of Hills Creek Waterfall #3 along Highlands Scenic Highway in West Virginia. 3 waterfalls along a 3/4 mile hike in a remote area of West Virginia.

Realy outstanding scenes here. Great work.

Really cool rustic images! #1 and #4 are my favorite. Really good composition and nice color.

Could you post a link to that action for your watermark action?

Sweet! Another place I need to go. Really like all of these. I love the inclusion of the water in the third shot. But, for some reason, that angle of view makes the building look skewed.

Nicely done, Jetson.

Cheers,
Ed
