The landscape bug bit me

Here are some shots from my 5D with the 35L. Since I'm new to landscape, all C&C is appreciated.

This shot I really like and plan on putting up in my office. The power of a good GND filter. Going to patch out the floating piers in photoshop.

    Graduated Filter would have done with the last two. Darker trees in the second would really make that a good shot. The 3rd shot is quite nice a little more saturation in the sky and more contrast in the foreground would make it great.

    Nice though- welcome to shooting landscapes.

    It is like golf- boring for those not into it to watch- drives you mad most of the time- and every now and then you nail a good shot. :D

    Yeah, the second shot, I didn't have my GND with me. I was quite annoyed about it when I saw the shot on my PC. I just bought another set of Hitechs, this way, I will have one set always in each of my bags.

    The sunset shot (third shot) was with a GND, I just haven't started any post on it yet. I plan on getting rid of the piers, saturating the sky, boosting contrast, etc.

    The second would be much stronger if you set a black point, I think it could be a very nice shot then.
