the foreground seems to be acceptable but the background very bright?i have adjusted the over-exposure on photoshop but adjusting to much makes it look blue.....?am i possibly doing something wrong with the midtone?any advice appreciated :)

I'm still learning myself Upolian so maybe not the best qualified to give advice but what I would say is that you have your camera on the wrong settings for the scenes you are taking

the compostion is almost there, you have foreground interest in most but horizons need straightening in a couple

what type of camera are you using compact or dslr? if the latter try taking RAW photos instead of jpgs, as this gives much more scope for altering the original image
