    You are all doing a great job of selling that you were having the time of your lives! A great keepsake for your trip.

    A pleasing and creative result.

    A pleasant image Mike. I would be inclined to fake the top of the door that frames it so that the entire image is bordered. It should be fairly easy to do. You could do by taking away part of the top of the image or by extending the image upward to complete the frame.

    I like the results that are within the taken image but for myself I would want to have the images complete and not showing the ragged outlines of the image stitching.

    I understand the feedback about the diagonal pole. For me, it spoils an otherwise wonderful image. OCD is difficult to overcome! We have hops growing locally so I would have guessed that anyway.

    A lovely view with nice soft colours Paula. For myself, I would likely brighten the beach area a bit, but not too much. Perhaps the entire image even.

    A very pleasing group portrait. For myself, I would likely add in a bit more space at the top, not much, just to add a bit more room between the hair and the top of the frame.

    A nice composition WN and I like the toning.

    At first my eyes went to the glare of the sunrise on the right on the left, then to the horizon line which is also the line of symmetry between earth and sky and finally, guided by the converging lines of the lake shore and the clouds went to the trees on the right. I think these three competing points may leave the observer a little confused.
    I don't know where the purple tone on the left comes from (wrong white balance ?) but it looks unnatural.
    All in all, it's a landscape that captures our attention but requires a bit of mental work.

    Please note, that this is just my opinion :)

    I've always admired street photography that seems effortless, but probably took hours of waiting for just the right moment. Did you, in fact, find the highly photogenic and fascinating scene first and wait for someone to pass by?

    There's a pleasing curve to the foreground shore, interestingly broken up by a couple of puddles. With this light, your timing and editing, I don't find it ugly. There's a lovely serenity that engages me, a time of day when only we and the birds are awakening.

    A charming trio, engaging angle of view. Lots of love here!

    I really enjoy photographs where someone has turned an everyday item into art. It encourages me to be more observant!

    This fascinating edit took me outside my perception and preferences for the subject. Quite engaging!

    I'm pleased you found Mount Adams in the distance - a volcano in the Cascades of USA Pacific Northwest. Thanks for your time!

    Very kind of you, Lou, and a sharp memory I envy! Due to several factors I find that after just three weeks, I've run out of "recent" photos that might be of interest to this forum. Must remedy soon. Thank you!

    Thanks so much, Paula 🥰

    LOL, I understand completely. Thanks so much for your time.

    I'm still pondering the connection, Jim. A lot goes over my head these days. 🙃
