A lot of my work lately has been wine related...

Here is a comp during the Napa, CA fire a few months ago

    Killer shot Rags! I do think just taking tad off the bottom would make it better!

    I like how you framed this with the tree.

    Thanks all...

    Hey bum... your comment about the bottom made me see some vignetting - I'll have to get rid of...

    Maybe not important at this size, but the print is going to be 40X60... Thanks...

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but I wouldn't print this just yet.

    There are major issues with the blending of the sky / clouds / foreground, maybe moon and will scream at you if printed at 40 X 60. :cry

    Good comments Sam

    Some clarification...

    The sky is smoke filled and it's a sunrise in a light rain

    The "cloud" is dense pronounced fog held back by western hills in Napa

    I'm OK with the image.... but

    I would like to experiment with the fog layer being less than 100% opaque and wonder how the metal
    (directly printed on metal) would alter the color or luminescence.

    I don't have the balls yet

    Lot's of my "work" has been wine related lately, too. mwink.gif

    It's a nice image with an unusual sky. I suspect that printing on metal might decrease the saturation a bit, but I don't have enough personal experience to be sure. It might not matter even if it does. I like the framing of the tree but I wish that branch hadn't been in front of the sun.

    A stunning sight! On first glance I wondered if the top half of the pic was black and white monochromatic, and the bottom half color. The color bothered me somehow ... and now I wonder how it would look converted to B/W. In any case a wonderful capture!! --Carter
