JANE,
LOOKS LIKE WE'RE GETTING INTO BW THIS MONTH, THAT'S GREAT.
NOW THIS IS A TUFF SHOT TO GET (UNLESS YOU HAVE WINGS). LOOKS LIKE YOUR KINDA HANGING OVER AN EDGE THERE, THAT WAY YOU GET RID OF THE FOREGROUND ON THE LEFT, BEING IT'S SO DARK IN THERE MY EYE KEEPS SEARCHING IN THERE TO SEE SOMETHING.
NOW I OF COURSE DON'T KNOW IF YOU LIGHTEN THE WATER AROUND THE ROCK, OR WERE BLESSED WITH THAT SPOT OF LIGHT WHICH REALLY HELPS MAKE THIS COME OUT, IT'S A LITTLE HOT SO SOME DETAIL IN THE FROTH IS LOST, BUT IF YOU COULD HAVE SLOW THE SHUTTER DOWN SOME MORE IT WOULD HAVE MADE DIFFERENT IMAGE, BUT I KNOW THAT WAS OUT OF THE QUESTION AS YOU SAID IT'S HANDHELD, BUT THAT WOULD HAVE ALSO ADDED SOME MORE LIGHT TO THE DETAILS IN THE ROCK.
THANKS FOR "SHARING THAT DELIGHT" OF YOURS. |

WORKING IN BW IS ONE QUICK TO LEARN ABOUT CONTRAST IN AN IMAGE.
I LIKE THE LONG SHUTTER TIME TO SMOOTH OUT THE WATER AND HELP STREAK THE CLOUDS..
GOOD USE OF LEADING LINES GOING OUT TO THE SUN SPOT AND THE CLOUDS ACTUALLY HAVE A LEADING EFFECT TOO. COMPOSITION WORKS WELL ALSO, THE CHAIN COMING OUT OF THE BOTTOM CORNER LEADS RIGHT OUT TO THE FIRST COLUMN, AND THEN ON OUT.
THE SKY HAS SOME GOOD TEXTURE IN IT,UNFORTUNATELY SOME OF IT IS LOST BY BEING A LITTLE OVEREXPOSED, WHICH ALSO THENDS TO BLOW OUT THE REFLECTION IN THE WATER, MAYBE F/16 MAYBE.
ME I MAY HAVE USED AN GRAD ND FILTER ON TOP
I PLAYED A LITTLE IN LR WITH LINEAR FILTER ON TOP AND THEN A LITTLE BRUSH WORK ON THE WATER, TRYING TO BRING OUT THE STORMY FEEL OF THE SKY AND THEN ADD SOME OF THAT TO THE WATER
REALLY OVERALL I LIKE WHAT YOU HAVE PRESENTED HERE |

WELL VERY INTERESTING.
THE ORIGINAL WAS VERY BLAND, LACKED LUSTRE, HAD NO SUBJECT, NO COMPOSITION, HAD I SEEN THAT PILE OF LEAVES I WOULD HAVE BAGGED THEM UP FOR THE MULCH PILE, AND I COULDN'T UNDERSTAND ANY REASON FOR TAKING A PICTURE OF THE LEAVES.
BUT NOT YOU!!
YOU MUST HAVE SEEN THE POTENTAL, AND KNOWING WHAT YOU COULD DO PS YOPU TURN THEM INTO SOMETHING INTERESTING, A PIECE OF GRAPIC ART.
YOU MUST OF SPENT A LOT OF TIME DOING THIS...GRANTED NOT SOMETHING I WOULD DO...BUT IT WORKS FOR YOU AND THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS.
P.S. DAMN IPHONES

WELL DIDN'T GET ALL THE INFO IN
HOLZWARTH CABIN IS ON THE WEST SIDE OF ROCKY MTN NATIONAL PARK..
IT HAS BEEN THERE OVER 100 YEARS
IT WASN'T THE BEST TIME FOR SHOOTING THE MILKYWAY, IT WOULD BE BETTER IN THE SPRING AND EARLY SUMMER..BUT WHEN YOU LIVE OVER TWO THOUSAND MILES AWAY, YOU TAKE WHAT YOU GET...THIS SPRING AND SUMMER SEASON ARE BOOKED SO MAYBE 2023...
THE LIGHTING WAS FROM A SINGLE LUMCUBE, TONED DOWN TO LOWEST POWER AND A DIFFUSER THOSE THINGS WORK GREAT FOR ADDED SOME SOFT LIGHT TO YOUR FOREGROUND.
USED 15 SEC. THAT BEING ABOUT AS FAR AS YOU CAN PUSH IT WITHOUT STREAKING YOUR STARS, I DID RECENTLY PURCHASED A TRACKER SYSTEM WHICH ALLOW A MUCH LONGER EXPOSURE TIME, INTO THE MINUTES..GOING OUT TOMORROW NIGHT TO PLAY WITH IT.
THIS IMAGE HAS SOME DENOISE USED AND STILL TONED DOWN THE FOREGROUND SOME.. |

MURPHY I MUST ADMIT THAT THE BLACK BACKGROUND DOES LEAVE IT A LITTLE FLAT. THE SUBTLE BACKGROUND DOES ADD SOME DEPTH TO THE IMAGE ALTHOUGH IT DOES MAKE MY EYE SEARCH FOR DEFINITION OF WHAT IT IS EXACTLY, IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.
BUT BOTH IMAGES WORK WELL, AS THE FOCUS IS ON THE LEAVES THEMSELVES...NICELY DONE |
