I hope too, she will make more photographs. Maybe it helps, that I soon will have more time, and can give her some relief in the daily work. W'll see!
Regards, Markus

Roberto, your wife has lots of talent, and has framed and exposed this photo really well. A beautiful scenery.

You are most welcome. I think Christians suggestion will come very handy. The rule of the thirds is a very essential part of composition. Apart from that the sunny 16 rule comes very handy too. F16 (aperture) at 1/250 (shutter) during a bright sunny day.

I think talent lies within oneself and needs to be discoverd. I sincerely hope that she discovers the talent she has within herself. After this shot is there any doubt about her photographic talent ?

If you look at the steeple, it rests on one of the "golden" lines, close to one of the sweet spots.
I've cropped the original so it will fit the grid - this crop is but one option. I've made it so the the horizon runs along the lower third and the steeple sits on one of the sweet spots.
The "rule of the thirds" is actually but a simplified application of the Fibonacci Golden String. The grid could then be replaced by the typical section of a Nautilus - I hope this will come to light some day as an option in PS or better as a grid overlay in the cameras viewfinders.

Wow, such an exquisite capture. You tell Hedi that this is lovely.
There are some "classic" composition rules to be considered. It usually is adviced not to set the horizon right in the middle of the frame - the principle is that it suspends the eye, and the brain, between two equally important areas. But then, some may want to create that effect, like it s often the case with a reflection on the water, as is the case here.
Again, so go the "classic" rules that you might consider your frame crossed by lines along the vertical and horizontal thirds. Their four intersections are held to be the "sweet spots". These are areas where the eye is "naturally" drawn to.
I've applied such a grid on the original :

I recognized the town instantly!!! It was overcast when I was in Hallstatt but still awe-inspiring.
Beautiful picture of this little slice of heaven. I would, however, crop whatever that is in the bottom left corner.
Well done.

Tell her from me, keep that camera handy, she has talent. But even if she didn't feel she was very good, if it gives pleasure to her and yourself that is enough, but it is plenty good enough. Hope to see more from Hedi. I have always felt I was in Den's shadow and not good enough but by sharing my images and getting such help and encouragement I think [hope] I have improved.
