Landscape attempts

[Edward Bancroft]

Here are some landscape type shots, from someone who normally shoots motorsport and aviation.

What I am looking for is comment on the composition of the images, although anything else is welcome. Do they make good subjects?

1.

2.

3.

4.

Taken with D700 and Sigma 12-24mm.

Quite liking #2[or a combo of #1] bar the crop, though the swan is oddly off putting.

I like #1 & #4, looks like Ely cathedral but it probably isn't in the last one.

It looks a bit out of place on the first, but right for the second shot.

looks like Ely cathedral

It is Bury St. Edmunds.

Quite a nice set, some crit

1st, a nice composition, but it would have been better the swan swimming into the frame (as in the 2nd) rather than out of it.

2nd is good, and the best of the 4 (IMO)

3rd the distorted pillar on the left distracts.

Yes, the swan in the centre of #1 makes it look out of balance.

3rd the distorted pillar on the left distracts.

I have yet to get to grips with perspective correction.

Thanks for the comments.
