Another Attempt at Landscape 2
Thanks for the comments and suggestions on my last post. I have been back this morning and tried a different view of the same location. Is this an improvement?

Techs:-

20D,17-40L @ 37mm,f16,1/100sec,ISO 200,hand held,ACR,CS 2,PK Sharpener, crop from top to reduce area of empty sky.

Thanks for any comments.

It looks fine over here :wavey: Keep up the good work and learn from the landscape masters over here... No, not me :biggrin: Never took any landscape myself.

Hi David,

Looks very nice. Such an improvement, the next one you post will probably be a masterpiece. :biggrin:
Nice one! :toast:

Massive improvement - good stuff. I'd just finish this off by brightening it up a little so the frost looks crisp and white, and up the saturation particularly in the blues. Something like this. Also have a look at sharpening for the web which will drastically improve quality it is displayed on screen. Tristan

Thanks everyone for your helpful comments.

I am currently concentrating on photographing landscapes close to my home. I am fortunate in that I believe there is a lot of scope for me here, but seeing a potential landscape candidate and then transforming that into a good landscape photograph is a challange I enjoy and am determined to achieve. Your comments on this and my previous posts have helped me considerably. If you don't mind I hope to be posting further attempts and hopefully I will produce that masterpiece. :smile:

Thanks again

David
