You are invited to upload one or more of your landscape photos and, if you’d like, to accompany your image with some commentary: challenges you faced in making the image? your intent for the image? settings? post-processing decisions? why you did what you did? the place and time? or an aspect you’d like feedback on? And please feel free to ask questions of others who have posted images or to join the discussion. If you don’t feel like using words, that’s OK too—unaccompanied images (or unaccompanied words, for that matter) are also very much welcomed. As for the technicalities, the usual forum guidelines apply: files < 1 MB; image size <1000 px maximum dimension.

 

What attracted me here was the dueling white balances—it should be even warmer than “daylight” for the sunrise light in the distance and in the nearby reflection, and “shade” for the near beach. To the eye, of course, both just looked kind of normal—not particularly yellow or blue. What makes the contrast particularly evident here is the reflection: the warm sunrise tones are surrounded by what, in contrast, becomes the very obvious blue tones of the shadowed beach.

 

(and sorry about the confusion, Deborah. I'll go back to starting the thread the night before. Go ahead and repost here, if you'd like--I like your photo!)
