Nice shots of that famous natural rock formation 8)

Is it me or does the horizon on your 2nd photo seem a little off kilter  :o

For my eyes this one is my best landscape:

Thanks for the feedback guys  :)
Unfortunately we had little time there - would have loved to play with HDR and ND filters. IF you're in Northern Ireland definitely go there and plan for enough time...

Here's another one from the same trip - Lizard Point in Cornwall with the same camera lens combo.

I know this is a Canon forum but I'm hoping there is a bit of leniency on the photos, because well.... they aren't Canon. Nor Photoshopped or manipulated for that matter. They're just good old fashion film landscape photography.

Waterfall Autumn

That is beautiful. Beautiful colors and beautiful composition. What camera/lens combination did you use? Any post processing?

Shot with 5D3 + 70-200 f2.8 IS II
4 sec at f/32 ISO 100 200mm
Basic post in lightroom 4 to boost the oranges and greens, then applied some filters in color efex pro. I think i used pro contrast + sunlight filters on this one.

Thanks param for the explanation. You made the best out of the scene. Again: good eye!

Param..a very fine shot indeed - this is a good example of where the loss of IQ at a smaller F-stop (F32) is pretty much meaningless.  I've heard this issued raised before and though it is true IQ lessens beyond say F10 or so in some cases where shutter speed is shorter.  With this one it is somewhat irrelevant as the longer exposure absorbs more definition.  On a side note (not being contradictory but to end off the possibility of greater diffraction at such a small F stop) did you consider using an ND on this shot to use a wider F-stop vs. F32?  Possibly dropping down the ISO to 50 to get additional slow down if using a wider Av.  Again, just a thought.

Thanks, Rev. Agree with your thoughts, the subject matter could have a bearing on the relevance of lens diffraction. A wide landscape may show a more perceivable softness at smaller f-stop than a shot like this.  Would have certainly tried to use an ND and wider f-stop, if only I had my bag with me  :) Good tip on the 50 ISO, it’s a new feature for me on the 5D3 and admittedly did not think of using it.

I dunno... I'm thinkin' your colours are off...

Was this an original of yours? If so I have the feeling someone may have copied it  :-\

Cheers Brian

I think they are great. Specially the first one. I have a question for you. Did you intentionally post R G B pictures?
