I don't know why I didn't figure that out. It's amazing how much we learn through photography. <br /><br />I'll have to try to remember to either shoot for HDR and carry my tripod (UGH), or use an ND filter. I have one, I just don't think to use it except for waterfalls and sunsets.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05905623376783787214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8737083356119581599.post-66014757347974994022010-02-01T11:06:05.177-05:002010-02-01T11:06:05.177-05:00That's a nice, serene landscape, very calming ...That's a nice, serene landscape, very calming to look at. I see you noticed the difference in exposure values between the actual sky and the reflected sky. That's typical in a daylight reflection shot. the reflected image in the water will generally be 1 to 2 stops darker than the non-reflected scene. The effect can balanced with the use of a graduated neutral density filter or via multiple exposure compositing or HDR techniques.Jim S.http://www.jrsphotos.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8737083356119581599.post-4964933010848137872010-01-31T19:24:40.736-05:002010-01-31T19:24:40.736-05:00Thank you, Margo.

I love the reflections of the grasses and clouds (in the water!). The whole shot give me a smooth and pleasing feeling. I also appreciate your explanation of the difficulty finding balance between high ISO setting and low light (when photographing deer in early morning hours). Great teaching point!Mangohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12509884204704834935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8737083356119581599.post-51396386964363516442010-01-31T09:41:05.134-05:002010-01-31T09:41:05.134-05:00That guy's photos are amazing.

I like how you give all the technical info with your images. It really helps to see how you got the shot. You mentioned Florida landscapes. I've become acquainted with another Florida photographer via a website called webaperture.com He is truly an artist with all types of photography but his Florida landscapes are out of this world. Check out one of his galleries I've listed below, and let me know what you think. I know he very skillfully must do considerable post processing work, but it looks so beautiful and nature.
