Wow thats really something. Great subject. However it looks a bit blurry. You might want to resize it so its smaller. The focal point in this piece is obviously the curve of the road at the end. However, there really is nothing to see at the focal point. Although I really cant comment on photography because I do not have much knowledge about it, I can say that it might be a good idea to position the angle so there is something at the focal point. Anything will do, even a slight difference of contrast or something.

I think that beacause there is nothing to see at the focal point, the attention is drawn to other places in the picture. If was just one tree in focus one would think 'Oh, that's a pretty tree' instead of looking at the whole scenery.
I think the contrast between the rather boring road and the wild nature is more than a slight contrast.

This is awesome, almost unreal.
The colors are perfect, and the landscape is so pretty itself, it makes an awesome photo
Keep up the excellent work

The fern on this photo is what I like the most. it is fern right? Sorry but my eyes are rather tired tonight and I just noticed on of the fern bushes is slightly hovering. Anyhow this photo is beautiful. The colours are rich and the trees are stunning. This photograph really is raw with detail. The shadows are lovely and I can almost imagine how peaceful and calm it would feel to drive by this lovely area.

I love this it reminds me of the hobbit! you can look at it two ways, the road helps the picture, so try to include it's wiggly-ness more, or the road is distracting so if you coud raise yourself higher and make it disapper, or you could leave it as is, all could be/are wonderful shots.

This is a splendid photograph But of course, there's still always room for improvement I like the angle from which it was taken, it shows off the tall trees. The shadows on the road are great too, makes the road much more interesting. You cculd've used the winding road and the largest gap between the trees on top more to your advantage though. I think, perhaps it's just me, that the photo could've been better with that centered. Think along the lines of natural framing and emphasizing the lone road and how great and tall the trees are, sandwiching it between them. Also, it could've cut off the somewhat shadow-heavy part on the left. But I think I see why you framed it this way. I must say, it nicely emphasizes the curve on the road more. Again, great photo (of course, I'm somewhat partial to nature shots hehe). Keep it up!

Thank you. that is the best Advanced Critique I have ever had.
To be hournest I didn't spend much time wondering where the frame should be. I looked at this scene and thought what a beautiful site it was, aimed the camera, moved it around and *click*
It's the best way... take a litle time to make up a good picture before you take the picture, instead of taking 5 and still don't know which one is best.

You're very welcome I have a number of photos which were taken like that "Oooh, beautiful, *click*" and turned out better than the rest. But I agree... it's best to take a good picture than make up your mind choosing which is the best among 5 shots...or more. hehe

This is a good picture, the colors (and more particularly the green) are beautiful.
The trees are so high !
