wonderful work.
my son is also 13 and does some nice work, but yours is at an absolutely amazing level. what camera do you have?
we are trying out HDR but have not yet figured out how to do it very well. What are you using to merge your HDR photos?
here's a link to one of my son's shots. He is good, but definitely a beginner.

you, though just a beginner, are truly a master in the making already.

The desaturated isn't bad, but the colored version is definitely better - the colours are great.

Both are very nice, but I prefer the colored one slightly more. The colors are so vibrant!!
Though I think the desaturated one would look slightly better with a little bit more contrast!

Really excellent color, lighting and composition! Although the color and B&W versions are very well done, the color version impacts me the most.

A lot of people say that Black and White immediately makes photos look nicer.
This right here proves them wrong. Excellent job!

I personally prefer the colour as the desaturated version shows the HDR halo around the rock too easily. Very nice.

This is very nice but the halo around the rock gives it away. If you triend blending in an exposure of the sky so there was no halo this really would be wonderful.
