Torrance Barrens Shore Detail

Capture at the Torrance Barrens (Google for info) about a day before

winter set in around Central Ontario (about a month and a half late

this year). Your views\comments will be gratefully received. Best,

Nice shot Len! A different approach from the usual broad landscape shots. Well balanced with the stump on the right and shorter Black Spruces on the left. The two planes, foreground and ice are anchored by the two larger spruce. A very well held together detail photo in my opinion! I liked your idea at the time and took a couple imitating your example.

Greg, Though I'm pleased with the composition, something, either the lower contrast Astia or the glass (more than likely the 100-300 f5.6 Minolta MD Zoom) disappoints me. Wish I had a Velvia 50 example to compare with. Live & learn! Best, LM.

Hi Len, After reading your comment I thought I'd try to see what it looks like with a duplication of the layer and multiply blend mode. I then added touch of Velvia Vision. You can see the results blow. Not sure if that is any closer to what you were looking for...

Greg, Thanks for the interest. Your version definitely enriches the colours, especially the blues. Best, LM.

I like this image very much. The blue background with it's various shades and patterns appeals to me.

Tony, Thanks for the comment & thanks for going the extra mile to dig deep into my folder for this one. Much appreciated. Best, LM.
