Absolutely beautiful! I'm tempted to say I would've liked to see a tiny bit more contrast, but like you pointed out, it's a personal preference similar to salt :) Well done!
Yeah that's definitly a personal choice. For the past year, I worked a lot find and get the look I had in mind. I made a long 500px/facebook pause, not to be influenced or to try to please someone other than me.
Now that I started on fstoppers, I see the big "gap" between my pictures and the other ones in terms of contrast and saturation, but now I'm stuck with my own style :)
When I review photos, I am also tempted to say "it would have been so much better with a touch of this or this", but now I try to make the difference between objective and subjective feedback. I won't go in the details, but to summerize now I judge mainly by two things: emotional impact (personal and subjective, eventhough we are all humans with similar feelings) and the quality of the work (objective), I try not to take a personal style that is not mine in account.
I'm glad you're stuck with your own style! But you should post more of it. Very enjoyable image. I could look at a large print for a long time, and not tire of it, I'm sure.
I like it. Ther's always the temptation to crank up the saturation. Glad you didn't do it :). The image has a velvet feeling to it.
Thank you for pointing it out John. I usually compare saturation to salt in cuisine, a touch is sometimes enough! :)
beautiful dodge and burning to create more texture
I did some dodge and burn, my aim was to re-create depth and emphasize the direction of the light.
Absolutely gorgeous!
Thank you Michael!

Thank you for your comment by the way :)

EPIC shot ! Like it a lot, leave it as it is ....
Thanks Mario! It was an epic moment to witness it!
Masterful!
Thank you Robby!
Stunning!
Passo di Giau, by the way
So nice to see a landscape photo these days that actually looks natural and real. Lovely shot.
Love the fact that the author didn't go over the top with the photo sugar (aka saturation)
Italy the best <3
Just noticed this image, Thibaut. Beautiful and inspiring. Good composition and restrained "post". Great job. Post more!
