    Brittany/France has lots to offer for Landscape. This was taken at far west point I could go. Did not go further unless I would have started to swim

    Did LR adjustments for straightening the 2 towers and building. WB a bit lightening the shadows in the FG.
    PS CS6 Levels, contrast and Midtone contrast. That was it.

    WDYT?

    Hi Anette, this quite lovely. On my smartphone the detail in the rocks is great and I really like the way the clouds have blurred from using the Big Stopper. Nicely seen and captured :)

    I love your composition, I think it was a great place to use a 10 stop filter. I might warm up the image just a little bit. Very nice.

    Thanks so much Andrew, Lyle and Dan

    Lyle you are right. I have added a bit warmth to the rocks and grass. Change the look very positive. Thanks so much for the tip.

    Have all a great week

    Ciao

    Great use of the old Big Stopper here Anette! This rocks, love the water motion and overall clarity, and a strong and engaging composition.

    The water has a very other-worldly look that works well with the three very different buildings, and the rocks provide wonderful leading lines.

    I'd love to see more of the buildings -- they look like a target-rich environment.

    Very nice place and extremely well captured Anette! The details in the rocks are awesome, as are the colors. The moving clouds add something extra. I'm not sure I like what the big stopper did to the water. It almost seems like the whole scene is floating in mid air. I find that cropping out the lower rock helps to alleviate this sensation, but that would leave you with unuasual frame dimensions.
