Landscape Image of the Week for the week ending June 20th, 2014: Don Railton - Matilda Bay retake..

[Daniel Cadieux]

Congratulations Don!

Hi Guys

I posted a shot from this location a few weeks ago which had a tree branch dropping in from top of frame. It was a distraction best removed that I tried briefly to do in PS but decided in the end to reshoot the image. This is that image... Taken this morning, its been a beautiful winters day here in Perth. It was ~ 2 degrees C at time of the shot, cold for me but worth the early 'getup..' to see a beaut sunrise.

1D4 + 24 to 70 F2.8 at 70mm with Tripod
30sec at F11, iso 320. 3 shots stitched, leveled, start trails removed, and adjusted levels & sharpened and cropped to taste.. Thats it...

I have cropped the attached at the 16:9 ratio, I also have a wider verson at 3:1 That I am considering for my wall. I choose not to post yet because the resolution of that is very compromised when sized to the 800 x 1200 pixels ...

DON

Spectacular image. It's obviously worth the second effort. Hat is off.
