Post processing: into PS, change from color to b&w via channel mixer NOT desaturate. Tick the monochrome box, green slider goes all the way to the right, play with red & blue sliders according to your taste and maybe pull the green back a little. I'm told the total color values should total 200, but I generally finish anywhere between 175 & 200. Depends on the overall image. Have fun. |

I've heard that if you remove some filter from a dslr sensor you will get a camera capable of capturing infra red. But the filter can't be replaced. Once done, it's done, no going back. I prefer to start with a color image. When "pre-conceiving" an image in infra red, just remember a nice blue sky goes black, clouds "may" loose some detail in their texture, but most importantly green goes white. Particularly pale green. The effect will be much stronger on a weeping willow tree than on a pine tree. Some construction in stone work such as an old church etc will also go well. That's the capture part. |

Hi Tuhin. Our photography is such a wonderful artform. We all have our different thoughts and preferences. That is what makes us all individuals. I appreciate Steven's comments about the "darkness" of your image, but to me that darkness just oozes mood and a very somber sense of foreboding. And the fog in the background just enhances that mood more. For me f16 is spot on, giving great depth of field. Sharp rocks in the foreground and good detail in the background, sorry Steven. The water is good at 30secs, but I would love to see another image at 1/2 sec. Give that water some movement and power. Just a thought. But definitely a stunning image. |

Great image Peter. I particularly love the strong foreground, the way you have maintained detail there and its cleanness. The eye goes round to the right, then back left to the mountain and those recovered sunset colors. Am I right in thinking this image was not taken from an upright standing position, but from a lowered / crouched viewpoint? |

Hi Steven, I feel this panorama image is beautifully balanced. The amount of grass in the foreground balances the blue sky beautifully. The positioning of the hills is just right and the use of side lighting draws my eye back to those hills all the time. Well done. |

Excellent image Tony. We never get snow here in Sydney, or anywhere nearby for that matter. It's one climate I have seen many photos from and read about,but never photographed in. The strong blacks and whites help me appreciate the cold and the use foreground and background elements give the image good depth. |

Great panorama David, and great use of side lighting too. I'll pretend I didn't see that little spot of lens flare on the horizon far right. And great post processing. |

Hi Sherry. "Still not very good at framing"? You fooled me. You definitely picked the right image of the 3. Showing the wall on the right of the canal, as you have, makes it and the canal the main subjects. With the two originals, I'm left wondering what is above the wall, but with your submitted image, you have answered that question very well. The pale blue sky is good and the bikes give the image a "human" touch. Well done and well framed. |
