Several of these seem to have blown out the highlights rather badly, which detracts from what are otherwise quite interesting images...

Wonderfully rugged Country! Nice compositions. I see graffiti is not just an American tradition.(?)

I think in 2 the clouds on the left and falls, in 4 the clouds in the center and in 6 the clouds and the rushing water on the right would be more effective with more detail in the highlights. Your compositions are good and just need to show all the detail in the scene you have captured.

Interesting. For me the clouds show more detail if you bring them down a bit.

I enjoy seeing shots like this from Iceland. You've shown more of what the overall place feels like instead of only the typical money-shot places we see done countless times.

Getting the best exposure is a matter of getting enough but not too much... When highlights are overexposed and blown out you loose the detail there. This can happen both at the moment you take the picture and in the computer later. When working in the field it is important to look carefully at the histogram to make sure you are not loosing detail in the highlights. If you see the graph kicking up at the right edge of the histogram you need to back off the exposure compensation. Often cameras can be set to have overexposed highlights blink as you review them on the LCD, this can be helpful to bring this to your attention. Similarly when processing your raw file you need to be careful to not loose the highlights during your editing changes.
Exposure is a big topic! Hope this helps!
