Have you considered using a split neutral density filter to moderate the exposure latitude?Quote:

I also like it as originally seen. Darkening the background with a split or graduated neutral density filter would have removed the sense of atmospheric distance -- visually flattening the image. A much better sense of distance and of place as it is now.Quote:

"I'd love to get some feedback if one stands out from the group to you"
water of the first or 2nd but color of first
sky of the last/4th
better more even light on the hills but early dawn still and perhaps with velvia
the only one i could look at for any length of time would be the first
super saturated reds andd greens disgust me
i like the crop eith the far "bowl" best
1ST - gorgeous! I love that magenta pre-sunrise color.Quote:

4th - great! The reflection is nicer than the previous 2. The clouds are more interesting as well - both the darker one behid the peak and the ones in the corners do a nice job of framing the photo.
Mel, that's a wonderful sunrise series. I'm having a hard time picking between the third and fourth shots.
Mel, I agree with Mark--wonderful series in gorgeous light. I am leaning toward #4.
Well done!

Hello,
sure is hard to pick one,,, #4 If I had to pick one or # 1.. maybe #1
Very nice work. Do you have a preference for film type? I am interested in you opinion of Ektar 100. Thanks.
I vote for #2. Richness of light/color, the felt presence of the mountains via their shadows across the valley, and the lens light fall-off works well with the existing light
They are all really nice. I'd say #3 is my overall favorite by a smidge for the better reflection. The best time of day is in #1 but there seems to be a bit more clarity from the brighter daylight in #3 and more sun makes the reflection better too.Quote:
