Description Again, no long description. Like 'Open Water,' this is in the same style somewhat in addition to location. I'm also quite tired from all that writing and should save it for more significant photos anyway

Infrared.

amazingly beautiful..the kind of shot I love...the quality of light is superb..the various textures of the clouds works well contrebalancing the lines of the pieces of woods and the birds adds to the magic of the scene...fantastic

Nice composition and perspective. The effect of the timed exposure captures not only an image, but a mood. Very well done.

Andross01 In reply to mantrasiva [2006-12-17 16:21:17 +0000 UTC]

The tone was through adding a bit of red and yellow to midtones in a color balance layer, and then lowering the opacity significantly until it was a very subtle brown/yellow.

Seriously...this is absolutely gorgeous...VERY well done


One technical question though...how did you the gulls stay still and sharp for a 30 second exposure?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Andross01 In reply to kaymanism [2006-12-17 16:22:06 +0000 UTC]

You tell me! They really just stood there for all 30 seconds. It was rather remarkable - I didn't do any Photochopping to get that, that's just how they came out.

Thank you!

DiomedesZX [2006-10-14 22:27:01 +0000 UTC]

hold on, I need help understanding this. Ok, looks like a 30 second exposure, is that right? And the birds didnt move? at all? I've been wanting to get an IR lens, any suggestions?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Andross01 In reply to DiomedesZX [2006-10-14 22:38:08 +0000 UTC]

Yes. The birds didn't move. For 30 seconds - and yes, I know that's strange.

I assume you mean IR filter - best bang for buck is the Hoya R72.

Very NiCE.. I wonder how it would if it was color and not B&W..

Andross01 In reply to 60215 [2006-10-13 19:07:25 +0000 UTC]

Red.

Very red. Slightly pinkish too.

It was shot in infrared

If it were normal, it'd be a pretty bland looking, dark green and washed blue sky.

And the water wouldn't look all misty.

If I did color infrared, it wouldn't look like anything special...

Fanstastic shot, perfectly composed, inline with rule of thirds, well exposed and the movement of the water and softness of the clouds goes together well. +fav

The best one of the series. The seagulls make the photo. Great composition etc. but I'd get more dark tones.
