These shots are really beautiful. I love the lighting in each of them. I have to say though that the first one is my favorite. Good job!

Lovely shots, sunrise/sunset can create some of the most amazing light and you have used it well. You have obviously passed your classes with flying colours. Well done.

That first shot is particularly nice...sun sky and grasses all joined together very harmoniously

Thanks for the generous compliments, everyone! Maybe it's time for me to get brave and enter the DPS assignments to get my weekly fix back

These are really good silhouettes. They have enough foreground lighting to pick out some details, which is what I find lacking in a lot of silhouettes. Good job!
