Triglav and Razor

Panorama from Julian Alps. PLEASE, view large. More images at my

homepage. Thank you

This is an interesting landscape. I can't figure out the perspective. The nearly circular lake looks like it is seen from almost straight down, but the rocks to the left and right don't look steep enough for that. Great image, Lukas. Great light too.

Thank you for leaving a comment :-)

It was pretty steep - I could basically jump in that lake :-) Don't mind the rocks on the left, rather look at the rocks on the right. This is ~180° photo shot with 17mm lens.

You can see another photo from there here. I was standing at the steepes point:

Anyway, thank you again :-) Cheers!

Good light and a very nice mountain scene. Not always do panoramas end up composed so well. Sunrise or sunset ? I would guess the former, due to the mist in the valley, but I could as well be wrong. Ahoj. Peter

Thank you. It's a very special and photogenic scenery. Morning shot.

amazing

very good photo.

Technically very good. Aesthetics... I am not too sure. There is too much of this landscape that is in the shade. I wonder if waiting another 10 or 15 minutes would have brought more painterly light to that area that is in the shade. For this reason, I would rate it  a 5.

Thank you for the critique. I appreciate it.

Yes, most of the image is in shade. However, there is one basic rule when it comes to light - more light means less colors (when we speak about clear sky conditions). I always prefer colors over "direct"  light.

On the other hand, Julian Alps always look kind of "flat" on photos. It's that eroded limestone and absence of vegetation. This is my main "objection" to that mountain range :-)
