Hi, @tashavk! Glad you have questions- that’s what makes a good learner.
IMG_1793-2.jpg is probably my favorite. One key to good landscape shots is simplicity. If you look at a scene and try to capture everything it will tend to make the viewer feel uncomfortable and cluttered. Whereas if you always try for simplicity, you’ll be able to focus more on what you really want the viewer to see. If that makes sense? As an example, I really like image 1793-2. It felt a little too unintentional so I cropped it down to my favorite part of the sky and only included one tree silhouette.
I’m still learning as well about simplicity in photos but I hope this helps. Editing is also a large part of completing an image in my opinion so I put a screen shot below of some of the edits I made. If you don’t have an editing program there are plenty of free ones out there to try out.
I also felt like it worked better as a vertical photo since there was hardly any horizon.
Keep taking photos. You’re doing a great job!
