Harvest

An experiment with HDR. 4 exp. All comments and critiques are welcome.

nice sky!, the shadow in the forground then the first tree line then the sky line all create breaks that interrupt the flow of the picture. love the color though! :)

Very dramatic sight , good balance and colors, a place I would love to visit.

This new technique is very fashinating because it increases the dynamic range of the picture, which becomes impressive. The drowback in my opinion is that the photos take a unrealistic athmosphere. But indeed this picture is very beautyful.

I don't think creating an "unrealistic atmosphere" is necessarily a drawback. It's the final product that counts. And your photo, Jan, is indeed wonderful. Good contrasting colours, a good variety of textures, a fine all-around composition. Nice work.

Thank you very much for your nice and fast critiques.

I've added another version of this image, maybe it has a more natural look.

It's still HDR

I'm a bit sick of HDR-epidemy, but I'd say that this is a rare example when HDR works just fine. Thanks for sharing

Excellent Pic
Best Regards

What a wonderful spectacle. Congratulations. Regards.
