I took these photos several months ago from many places in Tasmania. All of them I used long exposure with some filters to make the photos more interesting. Please tell me what you think and some suggestion would be appreciated.

Good job!

I'm gunna buck the trend. For me the blown highlights ruin the first image and do not help the second. In the second the highlights drag my eyes to the left hand corner of the image and away from the rest of the image which is beautifully exposed. This is a good case for dual images exposed for the highlights and then the balance of the image. followed by a merge.

The third is lovely :D

These are beautiful landscapes. The only issue I'd have is (and i agree with Oneputt on this) good case for exposure blending, because the blown highlights have prevented the images #1 &#2 becoming outstanding!!
#3 is great too but I feel a little oversharpened. BUT having said that I love all three. :)
cheers

#2 is just stunning. I don’t mind the so called blown area on the left as to my eye there is a beautiful counterbalance between the moodiness on the right with the tree and reflection on the left - well done

The blown highlights would be the only criticism I could possibly make of the entire series. The yellow in #2 and the almost pastel sky in #3 thats contrasted by the ocean is simply amazing.

Fantastic series....

Number 2 is my pick! the reflections are very nice :)

I think the first is abit over exposed?

Wow Lunatix, I sure like #1 and #2.
Something's not right about #3, the rocks just don't look right.
Reminds me that I must get round to Coles Bay with the camera.

Keep em coming.

Cheers
John

Great shots.
Love the compositions but I agree with oneputt about the blown highlights. Bracket the exposures and merge in pp.
