Straw in Wind

[maurid007]

1/500 F9.0 -1.0EV ISO 100

wut do u think?

It's an interesting shot and the sky looks very good on the left side, but too dark from the middle to the right side.

I also think that for a shot like this it might have been more interesting to use a slow shutter-speed maybe 1/4 second or slower. :twocents:

thx

I agree with Marco, the exposure across the image does need to be balanced a little more (you may be able to help some with a levels/curves tweak), but I disagree with him on the shutter speed issue. I think an long-ish shutter speeds are going to result in lost detail in the wheat stalks. I would like to see some of the bottom cropped off however; just a thin line of that black band across the bottom would be sufficient.

I agree that their should be some cropped of the bottom, and I think that the upper RH corner is a little dark. :twocents:

I NEVER mind when people disagree with me so always feel free :) I just wanted to point out that most of the wheat stalks are soft anyway and the darkness obscures most of the detail anyway....Since there is a wind that we can see going from left to right...a slow shutter speed might have totally changed the feel here and made the image more dynamic...just my :twocents:
