Superbe premier plan avec tout ces petits dessins de glace dans la flaque givrée.... Le contraste entre la neige et les couleurs des nuages est spectaculairs !!
Chapeau bas

Pretty stunning scenery. That background is amazing, but I really love that deep black lake with a little sun reflection on it. Did you use a GD Filter to keep that sky under control?

ZeSly In reply to MrMeik [2010-10-13 17:54:12 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much. I did not use any GND filter, I should have. I processed the sky and the mountains separately from the foreground and I blended them in photoshop.

Ahh ok, well you've done an excellent blending job then. Thanx for info, and keep up the good work! May I just ask one more thing?? Did you use a super wide angle? Looks like around 10-20mm. Cheers!

Yes, I used a Sigma 10-20.

Oué... bivouac sous la neige, -10°C le matin... et une lumière magnifique sur superbe panorama alors ça valait le coup !

Classe! ça a un côté assez "épique", l'arrière plan est magique. Le premier plan gelé et sans couleurs tranche bien avec l'arrière plan flamboyant. !

Quelle lumière!!!!!! L'arrière plan est terrible.
Le premier plan aussi d'ailleurs, c'est juste entre les deux que cela coince "un peu"...Mais c'est juste du chipotage, parce que l'ambiance générale est terrible, entre le feux et la glace!

ZeSly In reply to benisa [2010-10-01 21:57:35 +0000 UTC]

Bah la lumière était absolument fantastique !! Le premier plan est important pour moi et il fallait juste trouvé le bon. La veille, ce lac n'était pas gelé et n'était qu'une marre immonde piétinée par les vaches.

Very nice I must say. Love the focus onto the black puddle rather then the epic mountains nothing you'd see in amateurs work

ZeSly In reply to NicolasAlexanderOtto [2010-10-01 18:11:11 +0000 UTC]

Thanks a lot . I needed a strong foreground for the beautiful light in the mountains.
