I took the first two shots in Penrith by the Nepean River. I especially like the colours and composition in the first one.

The last picture is from Dobroyd Pt. in Sydney.

Enjoy!

The first one dosen't set me on fire but two and three I find very pleasing to the eye.
I also like the colour in the bottom two and could just image doing a bit of day dreaming.

Number 2 is well composed and framed....DOF is also very good....if shot a different time of day would have made it exceptional

Nice. I used to live at Penrith and know Tench Reserve well. Now I am at Haberfield and know Dobroyd Point. :) Good shots.

#1 is good, but not great. I'm wondering if there is an opportunity for a shot there later in the day

#2 - great - I like the way the grass in the foreground is a counterpoint to the clouds

#3 - best of these. Good clouds, nice lighting and early enough to see the detail of the boats and the cloud reflection in the water

Woah, #3 stopped me in my tracks... The color of the sky detail and the reflection is so vibrant, and being able to see the boats clearly really makes this stand out... Very nice...
