Rails from Sumpter Valley Railroad got to Whitney about 1901. Mill was built in 1911. This building which was the main building of the saw mill completely collapsed a few years ago.
Welcome to the forum and I appreciate your input on my thread about what makes a landscape image.
You did well here balancing the mill with the trestle. I would have like to see more room on the right so that the foot of the truss was not clipped. My other suggestion would be to do a curves correction on the image to lower the contrast of the sky and then mask out the rest of the image.
Please post technical information like exposure and equipment as that helps us to critique images.
I generally always post EXIF data and I have no excuss for not doing it with this one. It is never stripped from my images so a EXIF reader will bring it forward.
Hey Kim,
Robert gave some excellent advice on the clipped leg. Too bad on the collapse. In this situation the split ND or an HDR......with exposure on the sky also.....to bring up the tonal range......would ahve helped. Compositionally......besides the clip.....very nicely thought out.
