Very beautiful Kat...I think anyhow....love the warm tones!
I am a common person and I like it too!
Bwahahahaha..comm'on people.. :p Hmmm..do I sense an edit coming on...
Thank you. :)
C'mon Kat ... next you'll be calling people 'peasants' ... like I do ;)
I think ... No ... it's not over-done at all, No ... leave the dock as is because I like the shadow there ... it belongs, and Yes ... dodge the hill but only slightly ... it should still be shadowy.
Ha ha. I tell yah..I have to start reading what I type!!!! :p
Thanks MA! :highfive:
This is the second HDR I got last night. It was taken about 30/45 mins before the first. This is the dock, the ice road is just above the dock. People live over on that island and at this time of year I don't know how they do it. I watched a family get into a canoe, paddle over to the start of the ice road and hop on their snowmobiles with canoes on tow. It was soo funny.
I can't wait to get back out there this summer. Even my HDR seems to have gotten better over the winter with all this reading! Or at least I like to think so!!! :laugh:

Another lovely image, Kat!
Shot 1 is excellent. Aside from Ma's dodge hill suggestion, I wouldn't do a thing.
Shot 2 is also very nice but could use a wee bit more sharpening and some deeper blacks to make the image pop a bit harder.
Hope that helps
Marko
Thank you!
I got dodging done on the first and I agree fully Marco on the second. It really lacks a bit of punch! I'm gonna get that done too!
You have a nice subtle touch with your HDR that really works Kat.
Yeah ditto that. Really really really nice photos.Quote:

#2- What Marko said.
but WOW!
Thanks again. I love doing HDR photos but find them to take up too much space on my computer..backed off of them big time.
photo number 1 is really good.
you're good in hdr.
Have you thought about getting an external hard drive to put them on?Quote:

Just a thought to help if possible...I think you have so much talent Kat!
We talk about getting something for all the photos. I know we have to soon because it's getting silly!
Thanks Casil! You too! Maybe one of these days I'll get to visit back west, we'll have to have a coffee and shoot up the town! :)
