I misread the basic editing rules of using a single photo only. This picture would not have been feasible without either a ND Grad or multiple exposures/HDR in PS. I want to thank all of you who voted for this picture.
I will be careful of this rule in my next entry.
Thanks

PS: If I read the basic editing rule correctly, even if I had used the ND Grad, it would have been DQ'd? Is this understanding correct? |
A filter placed on the camera is fine but the equivalent effect carried out in editing is not.
Nice pic by the way.

Shot at Page, AZ just after a retreating storm. 3 shots using AEB and merged using PS HDR. No time to grab the gradND filter.
Think it still came out well...and talk about timing as I was drenched wet during this shot.
Am I reading your description correctly that you took three separate photographs and merged them in Photoshop to create this single image? This is a gorgeous image, but if that's how you did it, that's not within the rules. |

| One of my favorites! You nailed the exposure; I really like the sun rays coming through the clouds. I have this placing top 3....Good Luck! |

| Nice picture of Horseshoe Bend. Good technical quality, nice color processing and you are lucky to find clouds in the sky. :) Without a wide angle lens it is impossible to get the whole thing in the frame. Hope you are not taking it on the chin from folks that don't see a frame and think it is being... wellllll... "horseshoehorned" into the challenge. LOL! I'm betting that you and the person who took the Antelope Canyon picture were on a photo safari together. :) |

| Dang - that is a GORGEOUS photograph. I am not worthy. I hope you will share all the details of how you took the shot and procesed it so the rest of us can learn. I hardly give any tens (most challenges I top out around "8"). But this is a "10" and a fave. |

| This is quite striking; but it would be SO Much more powerful if the arc of the river were completed in the foreground... |

| Wonderful, great colours. I would have liked to see the complete loop of the river though. |

| Great picture. Good colours. I like the way the sun rays are shining through the clouds. Would have liked to see the river where it has been cropped of at the bottom of the picture. |

| Trul;y a magnificent place. In 6your photo, the lighting looks like it was very difficult, but you've done a good job with it. My only quibble with it is that I feel the bottom is cropped too much - I'd like to see thewhole of the river round that bendy bit. ;>) |

| The best photo I have seen that might not be framing. I am torn on this one. On the one hand it is sweet, on the other hand it is a stretch for the framing... |
|

| excellent wide angled shot but I would really loved to have seen the bottom of the river so that we could see the whole "frame" even if you lose some of the sky. |

| Lovely light - like someone up above is shining a spotlight. Lovely colour and reflections in the water help it stand out and create contrast with the wonderfully textured rock surfaces. |

| That's the beautiful framing of nature and a well executed photograph by you. Very professional job. |

| I think the river should be the frame here? Nice, difficult to catch the point though... |
|
|
|
06/14/2006 06:12:09 AM |
| spectacular shot...your title is the only indication that there is a frame here...so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt because, while it's a great shot, I can't see a frame in the foreground framing what's in the background until your title mentioned the river |

| Not sure if it's just me, but I think the sky looks a little tilted. Nice colors. |
