is it a 35mm film photohraphy?
do you use red filter? it shows up more contrast in clouds - check this

Piolvan [2004-07-14 22:54:49 +0000 UTC]

C'est le genre de photo que j'adore, à la fois un sujet très commun mais une post prod très efficace pour donner de nouveaux sens à l'image (ici le champ paisible devient inquiétant par ex.) et comme en plus j'adore le noir et blanc je suis comblé !! Cela me rappelle les magnifiques photos dans le même style d'un mec que je "devwatch", je sais pas si tu connais > *brandonwitzel ; si tu connais, va faire un tour, moi je suis fan.

En tout cas, bien vu, c'est vraiment très réussi

très jolie photo et fantastique mise en valeur !

Je me permets juste de confirmer ton avis sur le sombre un peu trop...sombre mais comem j'arriverai jamais à faire mieux !

Le talent du photographe est de rendre magnifique un truc que l'on voit tous les jours !

Les bottes de paille, fallait y penser ! Bravo !

C'est vrai qu'avec le ciel moins sombre ça donne plus de profondeur à l'image.

OceanStorme [2004-06-25 17:25:36 +0000 UTC]

Nice shot! It does look a bit darker than Ansel Adams, I agree. But you have a nice balance between the sky and the field, and those rolls of hay (?) add interest to the shot. It looks stormy there!

MarzAttakz [2004-06-23 14:43:26 +0000 UTC]

Lovely one, I reckon you came pretty close, I was reading that he used a red filter quite often but since we're using photoshop you could simulate that with a channel micer adjustment layer.

(but you know this already, I'll be quiet now...)

Maxwell-Vibe In reply to MarzAttakz [2004-06-25 21:21:24 +0000 UTC]

Yes with photoshop, you can create an IR efect but i would like use a real IR filter because i love the photo taken with a camera 24x36 ^_^

UnfinishedSympathy [2004-06-23 11:37:15 +0000 UTC]

Je prefère cette version à celle en couleur, le message n'est pas le même bien sûr, mais le noir et blanc rajoute une densité et une tension sur ces ballots de paille presque personnifiés.... Très beau noir et blanc

Maxwell-Vibe In reply to UnfinishedSympathy [2004-06-25 20:53:36 +0000 UTC]

Merci pour ton comment C'est vrai que la manip en couleur etait juste un délire rien a voir avec le N&B Je vais juste eclaircir un peu la partie basse des nuages car c'est un peu sombre donc resubmit dans quelques temps ^_^

Geert1845 [2004-06-23 11:19:57 +0000 UTC]

Very nice shot! The darkness actually adds to the atmosphere, and makes the shot stronger IMO. Only the clouds could've been a bit lighter.

sandervandenberg [2004-06-23 11:07:06 +0000 UTC]

I think the darkness is a strong point of this shot, it makes it more...powerful and impressive. Very nice. Especially the hay bale (sp?) makes this an interesting shot.

lostheart [2004-06-23 10:41:19 +0000 UTC]

Indeed a bit dark, but not on the underexposed side as it has enough details left in the foreground.
I'm a real sucker for monochrome landscapes like these and so I dig this one a lot.
Really gloomy...for once a photograph that oozes tons of atmosphere and mood.
Well done!

skoey6 [2004-06-23 10:30:59 +0000 UTC]

Très bon contraste, mais moi ce serait plutot les arbres que je trouverais trop sombres.
'faudrait mettre quelques touches plus claires, surtout dans le haut.
t'en aura tiré le maximun de cette photo, bravo !
les contrastes du ciel sont vraiment impressionants par rapport à l'original !

Merci pour ton comment Comme l'a dit ~ duskblue et toi aussi, la partie du milieu est trop sombre, je vais donc essayer de d'claircir un peu tout ca voir un peu ce que ca donne
