I would like some critique on this photo. The sky at sunrise was vibrant shades of orange, pink and blue, with scattered clouds reflecting the sunlight. The view of the valley dotted with fields and forests, surrounded by rolling hills and distant mountains under the vibrant sky was amazing, so I took a few panoramic photos. Unfortunately they are not published, but any advice would be appreciated.

Hi Hirotomo,

I really like your landscape photo. Personally, I would choose a little more dynamic range by removing the haze and (carefully) using an HDR filter:

Hello Hirotomo,

Thank you for sending your photo to this forum.

Very nice clouds in a beautiful mountain landscape. I have a few suggestions for changes to your image. First of all, the frame. I am missing a few meters of the foreground. Cutting off the end of the "funnel" did not give a good effect. Perhaps you could not go back or change the lens to include the end of the funnel. Too bad we can't do anything about it now. My suggestion for editing is to warm it up by adding a photographic filter in PSCC 2024. In addition, I added a slight highlighting of the edges on the left and right side of the photo. Unfortunately, due to the size of the file, I could not perform all the editing procedures. My proposal is attached.

Best regards
