the visual journey - gallery ii Beautiful Day

An array of beautiful nature one Summer morning in the Cascades range

near my wilderness camp.

I have got to buy some of your prints. Seriously. It would be great to have one signed... Do you get that artistic look from edge sharpening or what?

Thanks Scott. Please do. These images look way better on print when you can admire the fine detail. I suspect the 'artisic look' is derived from the soft light appearing onto the foreground. That, and some extra dodge/burning on my part.

It's always a real treat looking at your photos...every time I see your name pop up my list of "interesting people", the excitement level just goes up, knowing that something special is one mouse click away...and you never disappoint!

You never come short with your photos. This is a beautiful image, I love the color range of the flowers, complimenting the whole scene. Amazing Sky too.

Your photo has wonderful visual dynamic, beautiful foreground get my eyes into the interesting sky and the mountain with incredible shapes, totally it reminds me more than a beautiful day.As Younes said, the excitement level goes up when you upload a photo.

 

A little while ago I commented that your Ruby Beach photo was one of the best photos I had ever seen. This one comes pretty close to that. This photo embodies the beauty of nature in its purest form. I am guessing that you used something like a 2-stop hard edge GND to balance the light - could you tell me which one you used? Thanks.

Cada dia me maravillo mas con tu trabajo,, es increible, gracias,, un abrazo

Marc,

 

Fantastic shot with great lines and detail and perfect tonalities as usual. I love the recent similar image you took with the moon in the corner but I think I like this one even more. What a beautiful alpine scene.

Once again !!

An outstanding photo !

I cant say much just watch and enjoy

Thanks for sharing and inspiring us other

Marc,

I love this one ; this is the kind of landscape I have near my house.

I 'm still in love with your final rendering , SO SHARP moreover , I'm still wondering , how to get this sharpness . If you can help me , don't hesitate ;).

Exposition very well done .. ( hard step singh ray filter shouldn't make a hard transition ?) .

One of your best shot , for me .

Another masterfully done landscape. I am always impressed with how much detail you are able to retain while never looking overdone. Beautifl colors, composition spot on, perfectly rendered. Another fantastic shot, great job!

Splendid!

there are so many great elements of nature in this landscape that I cannot pick a favorite. it is a beautiful shot, no doubt about it.

Another complete photo story. The rocks to the left give balance. My eyes are drawn to the bands of color on the mountain. The array of flower colors is amazing, as if you have been spreading miracle grow along the banks of this stream. BTW, a previous post asked about the sharpness. I will thank you now for sharing your web sharpening technique which I have been using recently. It has made a world of difference for my web jpg files, giving them a similar sharpness I had never achieved before. Thanks for another strong visual rendition of nature.

Beautiful place, excellent photo!!

Your images alway express great depth and detail that not only hold me in your images longer, but help me travel unencumbered through these beautiful and seemingly untouched wilderness areas with thoughts of adventure and exploration

Yes, it is a beautiful day and light in front of the eyes of a master photographer!

Hello Marc!

 

I like your pictures a lot, and this is one of them. You have the nature around you, and you find the best part of it.

Almost too good to be true ;-) Beautiful foreground balanced by a beautiful background. The light is soft and clear. I would love to see this as a 24x36" print from my DJ130..!

 

Rgds, Oistein.

Very good composition,exposure,light and colors,Marc.Everything is served to you by Nature on a platter.

I want to go there and sit by that river with my family. All day.

This might just be one of my favorite pictures! I just love how it guides your eyes back and forth across the scene. Beautiful colors, a variety of elements, and excellent lighting make it spectacular!

Takes my breath away, so very well done!
