Svalbard can provide some strange landscapes, here I hope is one.

The layers are star of the show and really are very interesting. I could see cropping some of the top to focus the attention on the layers but that is always a judgement call. It may be an illusion but it feels a hair off level.

What David said, layers for sure. While the water doesn't have the interest of the upper layers, enough more to even out the size of the three layers would emphasize the effect. You've got to love 1/6400 when shooting from a vessel!

This is very interesting. I agree about a crop from the top in order to accentuate the landmass.

Interesting layers and light. I like the abstract qualities of this. While the horizontals feel a bit static, in the context of the the abstract comp, this still works OK.

Thanks everybody, i really do need some advice on my rare attempts at Landscape

David,

You are correct it probably does need a tad of rotation to the left, although it may be just the sandy beach on the left.
