Maligne Lake

Jasper NP, Alberta, CANADA

 

Evening on an overcast day. The clouds drifted across the mountains throughout the

shoot and lifted to reveal this scene.

 

Duotone using PS CS3 with a warming filter.

Canon 5D, 16-35mm 2.8L, f14, 6 seconds.

Encantadora!

Excellent, the conversion works very well.

A beautifully toned image, the composition is different but effective and I like it alot.

excellent

Really exceptional and unique. I love the toning in particular. I do like this image as is with the space at the top and I usually hate the call for tighter and tighter crops. But, all that said, I feel you could crop a fair bit of the sky without loss. But the subtle patterns in the cloud layer might come out much better on a full-size image and warrant being kept.

 

I hope this is only the first of a number still to come? Its been a while since we got to admire your landscapes!

 

 

This is really a superb work; and a step up even for you with your terrific skills. To my eye, this is one of your most effective and artistic compositions to date. At first I found myself thinking as Ian did that maybe a crop of some of the sky would benefit the comp. I have convinced myself otherwise though. I think the balance of the image, particularly with the mass of the boat in the FG, demands the retention of that beautifully delicate and wispy sky. There's a lot going on here, but it all is so incredibly harmonious; and the duo-tone treatment is perfect. A very beautiful fine art image, my friend! Cheers! Chris

Wonderfully artistic rendering and composition. So tranquil and appealing. Great shot-Jim

good composition and wonderful mood here!! I specially like the tone!

Very good composition, nice tones! Very well done indeed! Regards.

I like this a lot. It has a great feel to it. I think I would make the bottom stronger by cropping some of the sky out. The bottom half is actually where the image is. Good work, though
