Description This is the type of photo that I hesitate to post... multiple elements make it hard to pinpoint the best feature to focus on during development. I guess that is how I intended the scene to be viewed, however I do hold my reservations about this photo... Of course I learned where to improve for the next time.

My main issues with this photo is that there was a glare I did not spot when I shot the center portion of the panorama which made the forest appear washed out in the bright exposure for the HDR. This made it overall more difficult in tone mapping and it essentially destroyed any possibilities of keeping the forest bright enough to make out details. I may update this version with something I've spent more time on... but for now enjoy and give me any critique you please.



Also...probably my most massive deviation to date.

did u have fun uploading those 17megs? lol.

this is the type of work i like to see from you.

you already reasoned the focal distraction thus making this shot excellent, the time of the capture is beautiful i love how the sun is nice and low so theres no flare or quality loss in that region.

the reflection is flawless and great clarity throughout the entire image.

great work.
