I made some time to process another frame from our visit to the southern Drakensberg earlier this year.
I've shown a variety of views on this lake, here's another (hope it's not too similar, though the weather was different each day).
I love the quality and dynamic range of the D800 files. I used a single exposure here, where I normally would have blended 2 or 3 exposures. I pushed the exposure on the shadows up by at least a stop with NO increase in shadow noise prevalent.
Techs:
Nikon D800
Nikkor 14-24mm f2.8 @ 14mm
f5.6 | 1/200 SS | ISO-64
Handheld standing on the dock
