Another masterpiece of yours, Lukas. Perfect moment, composition and perfect processing. Do you use ND grads for shots like this or do you use digital ND grads ?

Seeing this large is truly a magnificent experience.  Very well done!  Gorgeous composition, and perfect exposure.  Thanks for sharing.  Cheers!  Chris

Awesome!

unbelievable details and perfect lights

extremely good light here!

the only thing I could suggest is to include more of the shadow on the foreground. It will make additional layer and better perspective.

Peter, thank you :-)

I don't believe in software ND grad. My personal experience is that the colors and contrast is much better, when you shoot it with normal filter, than trying to darken overexposed sky or lighten black shadows.

Besides, I found filters quite handy and easy to use. Only problem are trees that are above horizont - but still easier to handle with filter than with PS work.

Anton, thank you as well :-)

Composing there was quite problematic. The hill is kinda easy to climb, but still 160 km from the capital(where i live) + 1 hour climb up. Despite that we were 5 photographers(all panoramatics) at the top (which is 2x2meter) :-((( Very dissapointing situation.

Amazing image Lukas.  You did a great job handling the extreme dynamic range in this scene.  Nice job stitching 10 images as well.

Wonderful composition with unique colouring, bravo.

You can shake the GND filter in the middle of the exposure to reduce the impact on the trees. Good shot.
