Granite Detail, Acadia National Park

Hi David, love this shot very much - is this redish cast on stones natural coloured or maybe velvia - PS - cause...??

Thanks Darko! Good catch! The slide looks pretty neutral so it must have been a scan issue--too much magenta and red. I posted an improvement. It still has some red/magenta issues...

Hi David, I love the dynamics of the granite emphasized by your angle of shooting. The light and shadows give it great texture and dimension. What really catches my eye is that splash of colour at bottom left created by the lichen. I have become quite taken by the granite formations around our shoreline here on the island and find them fascinating and versatile subjects, ever changing in the light.

 

I've enjoyed your lakeside images through the years. All the best in the new year.

Thanks Hanna! It was tempting to move in closer to the main subject, but that lichen seemed to balance things. It also opened up the V shape (>) in the upper left. Happy New Year and best wishes for 2009!
