***ATTENTION***Please help me! I'm about to buy my DSLR in a few weeks for my 21st birthday. Check out the discussion about it here.
Also, I'm trying to bring Caedes to myspace, so check out the thread here.
Powerful image...I like it very much. The darkness of the sky along with the boldness of the colors in the field (while still remaining somewhat dark/heavy make for an incredible image. Is there something special you are doing to get that kind of dark, heaviness to this image? I've seen this styling in yours and a couple others' images (they too are from the UK...maybe its just the weather!), and I'd really like to know how to do it! Please help!

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

Jan, it's a matter of personal taste. I'm not that fond of HDR, the more it made the clouds and the landscape too dramatic, almost unreal, to me. Perhaps it was your goal to do so. Reading the comments above I've to conclude that you and others have a different taste, and that's good, else the world would be dull and boring. Regards, Cornelius
I've noticed that having open views like this with a nice cloud array really brings out the best when you use HDR. It's such a touchy program and procedure to use and each image has to be brought out by the artist to their taste and approval. So I say that you've presented us with a lovely and dramatic view, and thanks for taking the time to share it with all of us :)School vacation's over and the old school bell is calling :)

"Imperfection is beauty; madness is genius & it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring. And when it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, then I'm really better than them."--Marilyn Monroe
