The second looks biblical......

i've heard many comments about my shots, but biblical? :scratch:

a quick note about the second image - it is actually a composition of two shots from a bracketed series I took yesterday morning. The lighting was moving very quickly when I took the shot so i had to hurry.

I had one shot which was underexposed 2 stops which captured the sky the way I wanted it, but the foreground was too dark. The image I chose for the foreground had the best sheep pose though but the sky was blown out . I combined the sky image with the sheepish foreground to create this image.

Essentially, they are all the same shot as they taken at the same place and time, its just a combination of a sky exposure that I liked and foreground that I liked.

It took a bloody long time, i have great respect for anyone who can do such shots in an actual darkroom!

dude, do you have some sort of indicator that tells you when conditions are perfect for a photo?

wonderful images.....biblical is a fitting description for the second.

 

[JonK]

Stunning...yeh the second one is an awesome capture *adds new zealand to travel list* :thumbup:

The sky in the first is beautifully saturated; all around great contrast.
