Reflectiions Up Close

[Jay Sheinfield]

Inspired by Jules' recent waterworks images, I went back and found this image from last weeks fall shooting. Full frame to pan crop, very slight glow for color contrast, curves, and noise reduction.

Beautiful composition, Jay. The color and saturation is fantastic. TFS.

Always love it when I can inspire someone! That's an awesome water image, Jay. Lovely - really lovely water motion and the colors are fantastic. Looks like you've got about 1/3 blue to 2/3 gold...perfect.

Feel free to put my stamp of approval on it. :D

Jay, forgot to add...noticed you did a round of NR on the image. Next time, try Surface blur and compare the two and see which effect you like better. I usually end up with a setting of 4-9 pixels and 2-3 on the threshold.

Jules,

Thanks...I'll give surface blur a try.


Indranil, thanks for the kind words.

Beautifully done, Jay. The colors and patterns are gorgeous. And thanks, Jules, for the surface blur tip.:o

[Kerry Perkins]

Very nice! Love the colors and surface details. Good eye!

Water is a great theme this year! Fantastic colors. I like the pano. My eye moves back and forth from the blue to the dark gold--very nice.
