I am sure Rodin wouldn't mind if I borrowed his title for this. :S3:

The techs are not brilliant with hindsight, that's why we learn from them, wished I had the 1DX then. Shot whilst on board the icebreaker.

Hi Steve - whetting my appetite again. Well seen and composed. Dof is spot on for me. I just felt it was a little flat so applied a little curves adjustment and levels.

TFS,
Rachel

I can live with that Rachel :bg3:, although I wanted to keep the ice as 'clean' as possible and avoiding any heavy blacks.

Cool framing (well seen) here Steve.
I like the more subtle hues in your OP but would consider applying Rachel's tweaks at least to the BG?
Would love to cruise there one day...

Absolute beauty for me. Rachel's tweaks also open up a few options.
