| (Eduard) Msg: #1 April 17th 2006 23:31:11 | I really like the way the light streams through the clouds. The reflection in the lower center is distracting. . . I'm sure someone better with Photoshop can adjust it. I did very slightly change the levels and apply a dark blue photo filter at 25% to simulate a polarizer. Pretty subtle. Might be a tad too dark, what do you think? |

| Bob Wallace (BobTrips) Msg: #2 April 18th 2006 02:07:06 | I like the colors in Edward's revision, especially the patch of water just above the right side of the sand bar. It's a good picture, I like the way my eye is led from front center along a wandering line by the light. I'm not that pleased by the just left of center patch of dark cloud. I keep looking up there sort of expecting to see something. Wonder how it would work to lighten it a bit? | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Bob Wallace (BobTrips) Msg: #3 April 18th 2006 02:18:23 | OK, I took Edward's version, cloned in some lighter cloud and tried a contrast boost. Don't know how far we're getting from Buzz's reality here. We'll have to leave it up to him to decide what he remembers. ;o) (Buzz - if you hit Reply in the bottom right corner you'll get this interesting screen that lets you look at any two versions side-by-side via a set of sliders.) |

| Buzz Wright (Buzz) Msg: #4 April 18th 2006 23:27:16 | I agree with you guys about that dark cloud, but I am not sure how to lighten that up without messing too much with the rest of the shot. That is an interesting revision Bob - I like how your change seems to "magnify" the rays of light coming through the clouds. I tried cropping the sky out all together but that made it look horrible. I ended up printing this one out and framing it in a nice tan-sand colored frame - looks pretty dang good for a guy who has trouble remembering which way to point the camera... | |||||||||||||||||||||
