Challenge: Sky (Expert Editing)
Camera: Nikon D80
Lens: Nikon AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 ED
Location: Somenos Marsh, BC
Date: Dec 14, 2006
Aperture: auto
ISO: auto
Shutter: auto
Date Uploaded: Dec 14, 2006

 I took this photo as a Landscape Study and would like to learn more about how to improve landscape captures and editing. I was not paying attention and I either took it on auto or on the Landscape setting on my camera which sets ISo, aperture and shutter speed.
In photoshop I used basic adjustments:shadow/highlights, curves,hue/sat,and crop.

Nice landscape shot, really like the reflections in the water. Blown out sky hurts just a bit, but non the less a great shot. Nice work.

This is a nice landscape. But there is something in the clouds and the sky that take away from it. I can see pixelation perhaps from shadow/highlights, or saturation problems otherwise its a nice image. 6

Unfortunately a style that probably won't be received well here. A little more info in the sky without the blowjn highlites would be nice but it does very much remind me of work by the Group of Seven.

The reflected light here is good. The actual "light" is a bit too overpowering for my taste. Overall a pleasant image.

Lovely composition and colours. Nice use of rule-of-thirds for the horizon and trees.

very noisy sky on my monitor ... blown out highlights are distracting also ...

Good colors- it seems to have got a lot of grain in it. Did you start with a lo res photo or under exposed?

beautiful vista and nice colors. I just don't like how large the blown out area is in 'the Light'.

Almost looks like a painting.....

Sheesh,. that's some serious work there. So much potential, but the iredeemably blown hot spot on the right destroys it for me, I am sorry to say.

The bright area seems to bit outside of the normal colorspace.
