Dickey Ridge, Shenandoah National Park

[Beth Carter]

one from saturday night, which was warmer and calmer than the next day.

 

[Pete Askew]

Beautifully captured Beth.

 

[Glenn Clabo]

Wow! Excellent shot Beth.

 

[Beth Carter]

thanks pete and glenn.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

That's really good - great clarity at all levels. Beautiful.

 

[Ralph Thornton]

Very nice Beth. Excellent dynamic range in the shAded areas.

 

[Lee Webb]

Really nice image, although I can see a slight halo effect around the rock where I would assume you've done some dodging/burning. It's an easy fix if you still have the PS file, and going back over it again with better accuracy would remove the distraction altogether.

 

[Beth Carter]

thanks everyone.

sorry lee, no dodging and burning was done, actually, no local adjustments were done at all... it shows up when i increase the shadows globally in lightroom. there were some shiny barn roofs a little ways down the mountain behind the stone, so it could be from one of them.

 

[Milan Vjestica]

I do like your work beth!

 

[Chris Dodkin]

agree - amazing dynamic range and a lovely color pop in this shot Beth

You ditched you X-Pro1 now then?

 

[Beth Carter]

thanks milan and chris.

chris, i'm too lazy to change lenses. i bought the x-e1 a few months back with the 18-55mm lens. the lens was cheaper with the camera was my excuse at the time. the x-pro 1 has the 18-55mm on it and the x-e1 has had the 14mm on it since that arrived.

 

[Dan Cattermole]

Saves on sensor cleaning

 

[Paul Lange]

Really sums up the atmosphere at the time. Seems like the sort of place I could just lay down and snooze for a few hours to unwind.

 

[Beth Carter]

thanks paul.
