Diane, I love this light/dark, not quite black and white image. The strong blacks have a graceful movement, while the light rays add mystery and atmosphere. Beautiful all around.
This is absolutely wonderful, Diane. I love the crepuscular rays shining through the fog and everything framed by those lovely branches. My only nit, and I had to dig for it, is the brighter area above and to the right of the sun as illustrated. I’d be tempted to tone that area down ever so slightly.
Visual Notes
[A1] This area feels just a touch too bright. Almost likethere’s a second source of light.
Thanks, @Huw_Thomas , @alice and @Dennis_Plank ! Dennis, that area would be easy to tone down, and the brightest areas feel blown out. This is older processing and I should go back and look at a linear profile or some other remedy. The fog was breaking quickly and was ragged. As usual, I was a bit late to the show.
This is such an arresting image. The burst of sunlight in all directions is what makes it for me. But what if it came from one direction? Actually there are many good crops in this image. Great work.
