A lot of shots like your first don't turn out good but you hit all of the necessary elements here....great composition seeting your subject in the corner or is the subject in the other corner, the sky? depth of field allowed the clouds to be somewhat obscured but very obvious what the sky would have looked like were it sharp and the details are sharp where they need to be......excellent shot buddy

Very beautiful set! I think my favorite is the third one -- so beautifully composed, and there's just no other green like a rice field. I think you did quite well with the challenge -- they're all wonderful!

Great shots, Sparda...all of them, but that first is awesome. Great softness to it, and very relaxing. I can feel a warm breeze blow through just looking at it. TFS
