Getting back on the horse

After having a hip replacement 8 weeks ago I wanted to get back on a mountain hike to help prove the recovery and build back muscle content I'd lost.

These are some views taken from am outcrop on Mount Mansfield in Vermont. I love the way the atmosphere creates layers, and tried to keep these pretty minimal.

Feedback would be appreciated - this type of work is not my strength so suggestions on how to improve would be welcomed (as well as sincere remarks on whether you like/don't like the images).

Thanks for the help!

I think that there's far too much sky on each of them, percentage-wise but otherwise really cool. Like the second best by quite a bit.

What about Black and White?

I think they're all beautiful, Alan. Muted tones and landscape forms sing to me and you've captured both in ways where I wouldn't change anything.

BTW, glad to see you're recovering well.

These are beautiful, Alan! You definitely created minimalistic layers. I would like to see them in black and white as well like Dean asked. I think they definitely lend themselves to that. I agree with Charles on the first one having too much sky, but the rest seem really balanced for my taste. I love the sense of depth, the misty-ness, and the layer-upon-layer! Great job!
