Misty Moisty Morning

Hi, I've had this one sitting around in my 'in-tray' for a while - not really 100% happy with it. Anyway - gave it a final tweak and I am now happy to put in in the 'out-tray'. This is the view from my back door on those cool mornings in winter when the valley fills with mist.

Thanks for looking, C&C always appreciated.

Cheers, Richard.

    This would be a fabulous shot if you can fix the overexposure on the left.
    It's pretty nice as it is, but I think it would improve if it wasn't burned through thumb.gif
    Creativity's hard.

    Hi, I guess that is one of the problems of shooting straight into the sun - and unfortunately the overexposure 'fix' is beyond my capability. It's the old 80/20 rule - and my capability is the 20 :cry . Thank's for your feedback - much appreciated. Cheers, Richard.

    Hi Azzaro, if the truth were known - I've seen your shots into the sun - and that's what gave me the inspiration to give it a go. No mountains in my backyard - just rolling hills and valleys - love it :D .

    Hi Mary Kim, I'd been trying to sharpen it but it just got 'noisier' - so I went the other way to soften it a little :D .

    Cheers, Richard.

    Hi, it's been three months now without a single drop of rain - I'm looking forward to the next misty morning - sign of autumn coming :D .

    Cheers, Richard.

    Hi Craig, It's a 'late for work' view - much better to sit and enjoy it than go to work !! Thanks for your feedback - much appreciated.

    Cheers, Richard.

    Hi Richard,

    I like this shot a lot. Whatever you had to do, to get it the way you wanted, worked out well.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Really makes me wonder how deep the valley floor is.

    Hi Randy, we have a 'winter creek' down there - only runs for about 5 months of the year.

    Cheers, Richard.
