Roel,
This image is just awesome. Wonderful misty mood and the contrast of the aged tree falling and the younger trees going strong.
No nits from me.

Oh this one appeals to me very much. It reminds me of nature art of a bygone era. This has an understanding of nature that Nick Bristol often comes up with. Some may complain the sky is too bright or even featureless but there is a sense of spirituality due to the light. I don't know. It's just a log without great compositional construction, yet the entire image speaks to you and has much to say. Nice job.

The fallen tree is a strong line in this image and it moreover points in the direction of the sun which together with the less prominent lines of the rocks gives coherence. There is a contrast of warm tones in the grass and cold tones in the sky. Similarly the light suggest warmth but the mist chilliness. So there is a lot in this seemingly simple image. Like it.

Looks like a nice frosty morning. Nice!
Might feel slightly tilted to the left (realitively speaking).
