Mission accomplished! You must be pleased with that one ... the clouds and setting sun really draw your eye into the shot. Beautiful.

Fantastic shot, is it HDR?

Mohain · Apr 11, 2007

Thanks a lot folks. Yes it is HDR, 3 shots each 2 stops apart

Absolutely beautiful, great HDR effect and wonderful catch with the clouds. I love it.

The only thing I could thing that would improve it for me (and your mileage may vary, take it with a grain of salt) is maybe using a heavy ND filter to get a very long exposure (30seconds or so) to give the water a surreal smooth texture.

Very nice. I don't know if you noticed, but somewhere in your processing, you introduced some posterization to the water in the foreground, in the highlights. I don't know if this is part of the resizing, or if it's in your full res file.

Hi Matt,

I thought that too and went back to the originals (it's a 3 photo combine in Photomatix) and they are there in the original images. It's just reflections in the water so I thought I'd leave them in. However, I do find them distracting (I might try retouching them out).

I am struggling with the crop a little in this shot. I wanted more water than sky but feel the water is slightly too dominating. I'll post tonight in Indepth Critique to get (your

) feedback.

Thanks for the feeback,

Mohain
