And here we have someone trying to drive traffic off-site. Totally uncool. Especially when they've made no effort to establish credentials here on PT.

The photo isn't even that interesting (to me). There are some layers going on, but no real foreground interest. Nothing in the sky, so the top half of the frame is kinda wasted. The colors are muted, as if there was no post. The lines are interesting, but lead nowhere, and I don't know what I'm supposed to be looking at.

So, not a good landscape, not representative of skill, and certainly not showing off the kind of work a viewer would expect to see from someone that wants to position themselves as an expert.

IMO, of course.
