Looks like two shots in one here...

And, heads in the clouds! Love the saturation and partial silhouettes here Rob and the fact that you follow the pointer first and then return to the standing figures and the spot the subtle detail in the city below. I'm glad you resisted opening up the foreground. Nice!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, Pete. I think I used Tonal Contrast in Nik, which brought out the cloud. The rest is as is.

Super duper kind of 19th century explorers.
The colour is so dense it looks like one of Chris' Medium Format Velvia.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Yes, there is a touch of the 19th-century to the figures on the right.

i hate to say it, but he's pointing out of the frame, very bad for composition. nice use of the silhouettes, just enough to keep you guessing about what's going on.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Well, you get what you pay for, and I could only afford students to pose for me...

 

[Dan Cattermole]

Excellent!! Fantastic stuff dude!

 

[Brian Moore]

I love the sky. Chris must have lent you some of his Velvia I suspect! Nicely done, Rob.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Chris sent me two meters of Velvia...You'll see the same cloud scene in all my shots from now on

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Damn, I knew I'd sent you some Velvia, but I think I gave you the good stuff!

Very nice sky Rob!

Cheers, Chris.
