Thanks Ralph!I can maybe see a very slight mauve/blue cast in the skies of these images, but then, cloudy skies often do. Getting used to new tools does take a while. I'm probably being a little nit-picky, as I love 'em, particularly the one above
Thanks Gianluca. Yes, I actually considered linking that here, just in case anyone wanted to play with the file. Here it is: https://discuss.pixls.us/t/thistles-live-here/42689@Stevenson Gawen I saw that you posted a "playraw" in the Pixls forum with a photo from the series. I downloaded the DNG and couldn't reproduce your excellent editing (but didn't take a look at the accompanying XMP file). Overall, a really nice photo, very well developed. Only the sky looks strange to me, but of course the sky is also subject to creative interpretation.
I actually added vignetting in my version
Wow, "Critique Required"...this will be tough, since I like the image. I see where you are going with the colour choices. The sky colour isn't natural, but it's effective. My only real criticism is that the left and right side trees are close to the edges and serve as a bit of a distraction. My eye doesn't want to go to the central tree as much as it should.
A side note to those that visit https://discuss.pixls.us/t/thistles-live-here/42689. If you choose to join and post an edit, you should use an open source editor for your contribution. It's a great community that is committed to open source photography software, and as a result it doesn't welcome edits done with proprietary software.
About 1km and a few months apart! Good spot/guess. And thanks.Was this taken at the same location as your thunderstorm pano? Both are really nice.
