Description Taking a different way to the waters edge, my timing was perfect. I was able to get a few shots just when the colors were at their peak. The warm colors made the water look deceivingly warm, but I wasn't about to test it.

I focused on this rock under the water, allowing my nd grad to subdue the sky while maintaining the reflection.

On a side note, the colors were so vibrant, I actually reduced the saturation and vibrancy. Quite a bit might I add.

ND filters do make all the difference don't they. I have bracketed my shots up to now and used post processing to try and get similar results. The filters just do it a whole lot better. I am in the process of getting some, want to get the 10 stop ND to allow me to get out and get some good "smooth water" shots.
This capture is fantastic. Well done!

Jacob-Routzahn In reply to MarkusDS [2012-01-28 02:38:00 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much. Yeah, the grad NDs make a very big difference. Sometimes it isn't perfect, so I'll still blend, but again. It is made a ton easier with the grads. Another good ND filter is singh-ray vari nd filter. Check it out!

Jake! You're killing me with these shots, man. You keep getting better and better, the exposure is spot on, whereas in some of your earlier works, I felt they were too dark. Seriously an awesome shot, from the exposure, focus, color, composition, to everything else. Love, love, love that underwater rock in the foreground. Brilliant!

Jacob-Routzahn In reply to LAlight [2012-01-27 04:12:47 +0000 UTC]

I appreciate it! I've been really working on taking a quality, well thought out image instead of the uzi mode. This was one of three shots from that morning And also, my older work was underexposed because my monitor was never calibrated. let me use his. It kind of was irritating b/c now I have to spend so much time going back on older works.

LAlight In reply to Jacob-Routzahn [2012-01-27 14:36:24 +0000 UTC]

Oh I seem to remember something about that calibration thing (unless I'm making it up in my head...which I sometimes do...) Three shots, that's impressive!

Beautiful shot. I can't believe you had to reduce saturation and vibrancy. That must have been quite a sight.

Jacob-Routzahn In reply to Meema [2012-01-27 04:10:32 +0000 UTC]

It really was pretty awesome. I was also surprised at how much the picture was saturated. I rarely need to reduce the colors, but really did in this one. If I didn't, it would have been too unrealistic.
