Hiker in Kazbegi, Georgia.

Hope this isn't too edited to be acceptable here.

Taken on a hike in the remote mountains of Georgia. Colours digitally manipulated to evoke a fairytale-like vibe. I know teal and orange is a bit of cliché, but it does look pretty. Taken with the contrast between the beauty of the landscape and the tourist staring at her phone in mind. Taken in August 2019.

Any feedback more than appreciated, I'm pretty new to photography and still in my teens.

Hi Gavrill, Sharing my opinion...
(1) For your concept, I opt for image 1 with comparative tighter crop. For this crop composition is more meaningful story with clouds in sky.
(2) I liked the pathway leading to your subject.
(3) Human figure beings scaling factor.
(4) visually the image is balanced for my perception.
(5) for me both images are over saturated
(3) For me, glow is on higher side.

Very good images overall. cheers. keep it coming.

Thanks so much for the critique! What do you mean by number 3, human figure beings scaling factor?

What i learnt...

At times the grandeur or miniscule nature of the image content is not understood. Hence an element is added in the composition which we can relate to and thus identify the magnificence.

your both frames indicate this beautifully. These scaling elements could be anything.

For me, #2 is more balanced and captures the grandeur of the environment more effectively, but in both shots, the person seems more interested in the something other than the landscape - which is what I look for most.
