i often think of consistency as the separating factor between being good and being great. your work is 'great' in every sense of the word. keep 'em coming...just incredible.

Great play of light

Superb reflection, colors and composition!

Absolutely spectacular.

This image is really sweet, Marc...congrats.

Damn, I can't spot where you placed the grad filter :D Fantastic photo!!

wonderful!

Excellent image, Marc. The dark silhouettes are a strong compositional element and I think that the curved horizon together with the exploding rays in the background add great tension to the photograph.

As usual, this exhausts superlatives. A precious work of art.

Excellent composition and exposure! Perfect timing for the light.

Nothing to add that hasn't been said. i'm a fan of your work Marc. Keep 'em coming!

Magnificient color and composition, Marc....!!!

Your pictures are very best.Your fan Adrian

Excellent work. Keep learning from you.

Stunning detail and reflections in a very interesting composition. The uncorrected super-WA view is a nice creative touch that sets this apart from most landscapes. And perfect handling of challenging shadows and highlights. The amount of the image area that fades to black is just right, for my taste -- a bit more, and it'd be too dominant, a bit less and it wouldn't be the same picture.

Hi Marc,

 

You have an absolutely jaw dropping gallery. Very inspiring.

I would like to ask a question. You use GND filters a lot.

Do you use the "P" cokin holder system, or some other solution?

I am asking this, because I thought that e.g. the cokin "P" holder (not the filter itself) has a diameter of about 74mm, so it is bound to give some vignetting (when you use a lens like the 17-40 with 77 mm diameter). How do you solve this problem?

Also, if you shoot digital, have you considered to use some kind of software GND solution instead of the "hardware" solution?

I am asking these questions because I am thinking about to buy some GND filter, but I am a bit unsecure about its usability and benefits vs. software solutions. I looks that you master this technique so I am just hoping that you might share some of your experience.

Thank You
