Nice images, but I feel they look a bit washed out. Try adjusting the brightness down a little bit or play with a contrast curve and they will look so much better. I assume they are HDR images?

The hut is cool.

i love the photo of the hut! the misty trees in the background are awesome.

very nice indeed! just a suggestion though, a bit more contrast and saturation maybe? bring a bit of mood into the photo.

Great stuff.. They look washed out as the others are suggesting...make sure they are in sRGB. the hut would benefit from HDR if you can bring out some detail in the sky but all the same great shot!

[RichardW]

Single shots hand held not HDR.
I was trying to give them a bit of a painted feel.
Thanks for the CC.

I like them. You certainly gave them a painted look, especially the last one.

I was staring at that hut for a full minute thinking 'I swear that's the Old Geehi Hut' before I noticed that it was written right there! I go there as part of our annual fishing trip each year and it's an amazing spot, just don't tell anyone where it is!

Oh, and I like the shots as well!

i like the last one the best, n as u said, soft and painterly ...

[JAH]

Hey Richard I hate to ask but where was the last shot taken; rugged country.
cheers,

I have been looking at number four. I note some of the other comments about sharpening and highlighting more detail.

I feel you may loose the mood of the scene. Sometimes I fear we loose perspective by seeking ultra sharp images. Soft can be very effective.

Richard all of them look really good, well done !

In my opinion not everything has to look like it's been through the plastic fantastic photoshop machine . Great work, I'd be well pleased with them.

The hut I find the roof a little distracting.
