buck forester 0 Posted August 19, 2005 This was the morning view from my campsite on a recent backpacking trip. I used a 2-stop hard GND to keep the peaks from blowing out, which I might not have needed because the lighting was already soft from clouds diffusing the rising sun behind me. This was shot with my Canon 20D but I also shot lots of Velvia 50 at the same time so I'm curious how they'll compare when I get my film back. The wilderness RULES! Link to comment
john_weaver1 0 Posted August 19, 2005 Excellent Brian. The mirror stillness of the lake is intoxicating - pity about the tree! As in a gallery, it's a picture you need to stand back from to enjoy. Link to comment

maurik 0 Posted August 20, 2005 Hi Brian,Great job on this photo. What a lovely scene. I very much like the nature of the light on those peaks. Wilderness does rock! Not that it bothers me much, but the Grad ND may have been almost a little too strong. The reflection looks almost lighter to me than the peaks that are being reflected which would be unnatural. Should be easy to correct for in PS though. Link to comment
