It is beautiful. And the detail/focus is absolutely lovely here. Once I clicked, I wasn't certain what I was seeing until I noticed the gondola at the top and understood the actual scale of what I was viewing. My only possible reservation about this image is that it's square and the gondola is blurred/difficult to spot. My instinct would be to have a tall rectangular crop on this with the gondola in the upper right hand corner - however, with such a cut some of the epic scale of the scene would be lost. It could be possible to keep the current cut and just add two-ended borders - black on top-bottom or black on right-left, but again, that would make the image have a bit of a different feel and could be a distraction.

Once again, absolutely beautiful image - I loved the details of texture near the bottom and the dappled light on the left. Brilliant.

Just some thoughts.

Thank you so much for your thoughts! Hmm, the original cut of this photo was more rectangular. I will have to compare it with this cut. I see what you mean. It's nice to get some good critique.

Oh so glad to hear you have a larger version! So often when I go back to re-cut mine, I find that the only direction I can go is to cut it down more, rather than widen the scope.

Very welcome and good luck with this!

I want to go to Switzerland...I've heard it's absolutely stunning. Nice picture, I like the gondola coming out of the fog.

It's definitely one of the most beautiful places I've ever been. Thanks.

Oh, this frame adds come real classiness to the image. The only thing left that snags me is the placement of the gondola. It's not to-the-side enough for me, and yet not-centered, either. Still, I think I'm just being hypercritical there. :D
:iconiamjacksgoat:
Haha, it's alright. I could probably move the gondola, but I have neither the time nor the patience. Maybe one day when school doesn't exist. :)
