85 Mar 23 Comment Drema, I agree. I like the square aspect ratio better than the portrait approach. If I were to recrop the photo, I would probably do something similar. Mar 26th
85 Mar 23 Comment Very good to know, Pete! :-)

85 Mar 23 Comment Janos,

This is a very interesting image as it stands. Personally, what I like to do to images like this is to convert them into a scrollable 360-degree image.

Have you tried something like Microsoft's ICE to stitch the 27 photos together, and then using an online 360-degree site such as kuula.co to create such the final image?

85 Mar 23 Comment Lou, I really like your composition and what you did to the sky. I also liked Pete's suggestion about using the built-in HDR capability of the Mavic.

Regarding the exposure, I am not so sure I would have darkened as suggested by others. I think I might have tried a bit of clarity first to increase the local contrast.

85 Mar 23 Comment Pete, I really like the enhanced color saturation you achieved during post. Starting with HDR merging was a good idea. It's interesting when I look at the original, I don't see a lot of contrast that would necessitate an HDR image, but it really worked here.

How far did you have to walk to get to this location?

85 Mar 23 Comment Drema, I really like your image. Taking it from that angle and creating the vertical panorama really adds to the drama. Mar 21st
85 Mar 23 Comment Hi Lisa,

Being late to the party, it is hard to add anything new to what has been said already. I understand what you were trying to do with the abstract. I really like the original view and wonder how it would look enhanced in a similar way as you did with the abstract version.

Another view of the bridge that is not directly over it might have been interesting as well.

85 Mar 23 Comment Well, I have to admit, Pete, the vertical crop does not make the image look unbalanced. At least it does not to me. I see your and Lou's point. Thanks. Mar 11th
85 Mar 23 Comment Lou, that is a good thought. What I was afraid might happen is that a crop like that might cause an imbalance in the image. But of all of the common composition guidelines, I find the those dealing with image balance the hardest to recognize and understand. Mar 9th
85 Mar 23 Comment That is a good point, Janos. And it would have been so easy. I just did not think of it.

You are right, one is me. :-)
