Foggy morning

[Diane Miller]

Thanks to Cheryl (and others??) who use DAP Benson and pointed out that I can get a version for the "real" computer. I think the Mac version is simplified, but I tried it with results I like on a foggy shot taken the other morning. Gave an effect I really like to a very plain shot.

Lots of adjustment masks here, and the DAP layer in Soft Light mode.

WOW! Love everything about this... the blues, the textures, the swirling lines, the reflection!!

[Judy Howle]

Love the colors and tones and the texture Diane. Well done!

[Randall Farhy]

Diane, it's beautiful. This looks just like an early painting. Colors, tones, composition, everything about this is pleasant to the eye. I might play with smallish ducks or geese floating in the pond as a composite, perhaps on a diagonal somehow-but that would be creating another image altogether.

Edit-perhaps a very slight CCW rotation?

[Dennis Bishop]

I like the blue/brown combination and the way the sky and its reflection wrap around the line of trees. Very nicely shot and processed.

[Diane Miller]

Thanks everyone! Rotation here is problematic. The water's edge line you see in the middle is angling away and the tree on the right is out in the water closer to me. When it gets this messy I figure, who can tell??

This was pretty heavy fog, 20 min before "sunrise" (wherever it rose -- wasn't here...)

I put a post in Landscape looking a little to the right, after it topped the fog bank, and am about to post another.

I've wanted to see this image since I saw the thumbnail a few days ago. I love the colors (blue being my favorite color). It does look like a painting on canvas. Wonderful brush strokes. I've been puzzling over how I feel about the dark on the left and light on the right--one effect is to cause me to look back and forth across the image. You tempt me to try DAP

Dreamy image, Diane.

Great mood and lovely colours!
