Hamid, I love the diffusion of the sun and the beams that are projected from it over the mountains. THe sky is incredible rich in tones and the land has a great sense of depth.

It just excellent. I like how you manage get sun light. I think, if you try use neutral density filter on similar conditions it get even better. Also, thank you for your recent comments.

With all my best,

Excellent image Hamid! You controlled lens flare really well in this difficult to manage shot. Spectacular sky, and excellent foreground detail for a shot of this nature. Very well done!

All the best,
Neil!

This is a very difficult lighting situation which you have managed during shooting/postproduction extremely well. The sky is very dramatic which in my opinion is the main subject of this lanscape. It steals the show...brillant Hamid. Light falling on the foreground is very attractive with the backlighting highlights. Contrast and colour are perfect. One small thing I would have cloned out is the tiny green/yellow lens flare on the cloud just above the sun. Well done for a very strong image which hold interest. Regards . . . john

Many thanks to you all of my dear friends for your nice kind and warm comments and supports. I greatly appreciate that.

Dear Alex:

This is a composite shot, prepared of three main shots, shoot at  0, +1  and +2 exposure compensation values, processed at photomatix and then repaired and re-processed at ps with another simple shot at -2 ev. Three first shots were managed for f/g metering. thanks for your question.

This is a real masterpiece dear Hamid. Great shot, the details on the foreground are perfect, the clouds are amazing, you just expose perfect for this picture.

The use of the polarizer gives the sky beautiful tones

Good job. Congrats. 6.

While very dramatic, the sky could use a little more/less work. I think embracing the blown highlights around the sun would be ok here and if you were to us this as a layer above the original, erase some of the top right sky about 15-20%. The clouds are just a little too blue, and the sky around the sun looks a little off. Overall through very nice.

Very good6 HDR! This is an example of the scene that exists in nature, in reality  yet there is no way to see it this way, no human could...It is a step ahead in many ways..I would remove the lens flare though. BR,vf

Very dramatic light, and cloud formation. Sun rays are illuminating the tops of the shrubs. There is enough light to reveal the texture of the rock. Well done. Regards, ifti.
