    I haven't posted here in a while, and I also haven't shot fresh landscapes in a while ...
    This is from my 2011 archives, from a weekend spent trout fishing and photographing scapes on a farm in the Belfast/Dullstroom area of the South African Highveld.

    Techs:
    Nikon D3s
    Nikkor 14-24mm f2.8 @ 14mm
    f22 | ISO-200
    Blend of 3 exposures using luminosity masks

    Very nice Morkel.
    I like the composition very much and the rock wall has great DOF and nice lines. The image almost has a fisheye feel to it.
    I do find the color of the grass a bit saturated for my tastes.

    Hi Morkel, I like the way you arranged the rocks within the composition. The nice colors in the sky at the horizon add the right amount of interest to the skies as well.

    Morkel, I was thinking fish eye lens also. I love the perspective. I'm another vote for a little less saturation but maybe this is what it truly looked like. We haven't seen green grass in awhile but mine in Florida is just starting to grow again.
