The Sun, Fog and Trees
Jack Graham recently posted a photo similar to this one (we were visiting Ridgefield together), but I decided to take it the black & white route.

This is a two shot blend combined with masks. I couldn't get my attempts at HDR to look the way I wanted to, so I went this route. I'm fairly happy with the result, but I'll probably tweak it a little more another day when I come back to it.

I hadn't posted anything in a while, so I thought I'd share.

Cheers!

Oh,YEAH! This is so mythical and moody. Great range of tones looks wonderful as B & W.

Great work on this one Ryan. Bet it looks fantastic as a large print.

This is nice ryan. I love the way the fog looks and it has a great mood to it.

Excellent, Ryan! I don't see that it needs any more tweaking whatsoever.

Sweet Ryan!! My only thought would be to crop just a bit closer to the trees/sun/beams. That area is great!
