Landscape - 11

Posted by drphoto (Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom) on 11 April 2008 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

This shot represents another attempt on my part to step away from my usual, over-processed, type of workflow. I spotted this one day whilst riding home down the A1, so I pulled up and took a few quick snaps.

Once again, I did not have my tripod with me (I am going to make one of those string tripods for sure) so I couldn't take a seperate shot to expose for the foreground. this is probably a good thing or it may well have turned into another of my 'high dynamic range, high contrast, hich colour saturation' images and I am much more pleased with this, rather subdued result.

I've spent most of last month working on images to put on my (currently under construction) website. Most of them I won't be posting here but landscape photography is the area I'm most interested in getting into so I figured, why not put them out there (or on here)!

I am 80-90% satisfied with these images; I like to photograph wild places and dramtic landscapes but I'm not sure if my processing seems a little... amature. So please be as harsh as you can regarding post processing as well as composition, lighting, subject matter etc: I'm looking to improve!

I welcome all constructive comments, compliments and criticisms.
I am here to learn. The fastest way for me to learn is for you to be really unforgiving and articulate in your criticism =D)

If you don't have time to comment don't forget to give a star rating as you pass through!
