foggy landscape 2

photofriday entry for 'misty'

i know this looks a lot like an earlier post, but since i'm submitting it to photofriday i decided to take into account the advice i got from comments to the earlier version and make a slight curves adjustment and add a little vignetting.

sorry i'm not able to catch up on everyone's blogs as i'd like to, focusing on other pursuits more now.

Comments, feedback, criticism, suggestions, etc. are always appreciated. Thanks!

Mike from Brussels, Belgium

The vignetting was probably a great idea (haven't looked at the original yet) as you don't have any dark elements in the right top corner. It adds to the atmosphere.

@Mike: i think you're right. thanks for visiting! come back again.

Daniel from Brighton, United Kingdom

Good photo. It is a back light shot with high contrast to bring out the form of the tree. But there are also many soft gradients in it.

Sandrine from Cincinnati, United States

I love all foggy shots! This one is no exception! Great processing!

Mortola from SoCal, United States

danthro delivers once again and does not disappoint. this one you should print professionally and framed. what a beautiful photograph.

5 Feb 2008 7:31pm

@Mortola: thanks a lot. i'm not so sure how good it'll look bigger, i'd probably have to put some more time in removing the imperfections you don't notice here. i'm still wondering where all these comments are coming from. it was just about a month ago you were one of the only people leaving me any comments at all!

Like the backlight in this shot. It makes the branches looke very creepy. Nice tone.

Stu from Kyoto, Japan

I absolutely love this shot. I've never captured one of these mysterious, atmospheric and misty images. Looks super in b&w.

@Stu: thank you very much. i think most of it was luck.

Wojciech Jarosz from San Diego, United States

Thanks for the kind comments on my blog.

You have some really nice photos. I particularly like this image. It has great atmosphere. My only critique is that I wish the left tree wasn't cropped as much, but perhaps that wasn't possible.
