I love your style, the soft light, soft water, myriad colors. Excellent work!
You can add multiple images to a single post if you're so organizationally inclined. One photo per post is only required for posting pics via attachments.

If you're looking to learn, then maybe slow down so that we can talk about a shot in depth.
On this one, I don't buy the purple sky with the cool-toned water. It seems that if one is warm, the other shouldn't be cool, or vice versa.
I really like the pier shot, but I think that the foreground is lacking in contrast.
This one could be so cool, but misses, compositionally. The cross and the man (?) are great elements. The bottom of the frame bothers me, where the sky hits the bottom of the frame. It breaks the image in two, awkwardly, I think. And it's all just a little too tight, denying me a sense of place in the shot.
It's a beautiful place, and you've got some really nice shots there!

DavidTO made some good points there, which I in all my enthusiasm wouldn't even have noticed. But I agree with him, especially on the first one. Something doesn't sit right with my eyes when looking at it and I think he pinpointed it well.
But again, beautiful work for sure! Love the gentleness and serenity radiating from these shots. My favorite is the last one you posted.
Greetings,

I would like to ask how to you sharpen your photos for web posting?
from Hi-resolution then to web size?
I dont know if your familiar with Marc Adamus sharpening technique.
from Hiresolution i resize it as double of my web size width which is 800
so from hires size i resize it to 1600 then double sharpen blend mode luminosity then mask it i only sharpen rocks and mountains the water and sky was not sharpen. then resize to 800 or 900 for web size.
Can you give me tips? how to pop the elements after sharpening?

If you haven't already, Dgrin has a gallery of user-donated tutorials for shooting and processing, linked in the navbar above. There is some info on sharpening and making your image pop, which can be useful. Additionally, feel free to do a search in the Finishing School forum, for all the gurus there know their stuff.
