Hi All,
Just want to wish everyone a Happy and Healthy New Year!
Went out with Paul Marcellini this morning to the Glades and we were rewarded with a bit of fog. I changed the AWB to shade......as i liked the sepia tone it gave to it.
Before sunrise....Canon Mark 3 with the 28-135mm lens at 50mm for 8 seconds at f22 and ISO 100. Cropped off top to more of a pano.....just felt it emphasized the island a bit more.
Beatiful the reflex in the water. For the perfection: I think the grass in lower left a bit disturbing. roman: can I do here a purpose? write some technical lines about night photos.
Wonderful mood. Does the island need a bit of ccw rotation? Would like to see it sharpened a bit more with the black a bit blacker and the sepia a bit brighter.

It's amazing how much moodier the glades look with a little fog. I love this view Roman. It could use a little sharpening, but you probably backed down to keep it under the file size limit. I like the tones and wouldn't darken the blacks or up the colors...they are great as they are and accurately capture a foggy morning in the glades.
I might like this more than mine. The whole reason I suggested this area was the island and how the fog would separate it. And then I walk away and don't show that well. I like the depth of this. Too bad all the trees grew crooked. =) I like the pano crop, but not totally sold on the tone. In some of mine I emphasized the cool tones in the fog.
