a dusting of snow

snow cover

the snow at the front of the ruin is very well ..

nice shot

something looks artificial? the lighting from the sky (ie from top-right) doesn't seem to be coming from the same direction as would cast the light seen on the chimney/wall and fence-posts in front?

If I didn't know better I would say this is a constructed image. And since I don't know better I will say flat out it is. You didn't do a very good job blending the sky and the foreground. You can spot it a mile away. Two words - Guassian Blur.

At first glance, with the snow sticking to the side of the building, really gave it an "artifical" glow. But a closer look reveals a great picture. Now did you do anything to this?

 

Still a GREAT PICTURE...

 

Desmond how could anyone NOT see this is a poor composite of two images. Its so obvious it slaps you in the face. Just look at the horizon line.

Micky

this is not a composite.(I have all the origionals that I took.What I had done is,selected the sky and give it a bit more oomph and also atered the forground.

but of course you know thjis(the horison shows this of and shoud have been rectified.but as we do not take life that sereous I did not feel the need (Still no photographs on????????? go on show us some and we will all get a glipse of your fantastic knowledge regarding photography
