Capitol Reef

Taken at Capitol Reef. What do you think?

I very much like the lighting, but the sky color doesn't seem right to me - it's very purple. I think with a little adjustment there to get more blue instead of purple, you will have a very nice landscape shot.

The sky was really this purple. I know it almost looks fake to me. I probably should adjust it though because I have had a lot of people say that.

Absolutely love this! Love the tones, composition, all of it. Keep the sky, especially if it's real.

Thanks Will...I guess I will keep the sky...it has really been bugging me whether to keep it or not...LOL

I think the purple goes well with the burnt sienna. Just my opinion. Even if it wasn't real, I say keep it. This isn't photo-journalism, so realistic accuracy isn't the primary goal, beauty and interest are the goals.

Whether real or imagined, a cast tends to flatten the image. Once the cast is removed subtle variations in tonality can be exploited to add depth. This image appears to have a magenta cast. With the cast removed and a few other adjustments for your consideration...

Great shot 7/7

A very nice shot Melissa. It looks like a scene from One Million Years B.C.

I also have to credit Mr Miller for his enhancement. It has reduced the cast and has provided depth as he had intended.

 

It is a 'little' too bright on the mountain highlights to the far right for me though David. It would seem that light emphasis and tonal adjustment as suggested was used there to help build depth into the scene.

 

This is a beautiful photo. I love the vibrant colours.

Very beautiful, it needed more sky.
