Tonto Bridge - part deux

AZsnapper

Went back out there with another member here, Shawn. Even with a tripod, getting good shots are difficult. Unfortunlatley, it was overcast, so any shot with the sky in it turned out a washed out gray. This is a merge of 2 images. Still can't capture the magic of the water falling down the bridge with the light streaming through it.

Karl-

I looked at a film print I have similar to your shot. I shot it from in front of the rocks in your shots. The yellow tree is in the left third, the dead tree in the center, and a good amount of water visible.
What was your exif for the images you merged?

Not sure what 'exif' is, but I took 2 exposures and merged them together, using the old tried and true hand masking (and alot of time and adjustment layers!)

I've updated the image to make the trees more green instead of the blueish cast:

The EXIF is the camera settings from when you took the picture.

Exposure- Apeture- ISO- Focal Length


I posted some of my shots from Sedona in a thread in this section, let me know what you think.
