the sky was this blue because it was SO blue, and i used a polarizer. i did a little post-processing to brighten the snow and some spots of the trees tho.
I like the wide angle perspective as it adds to the mystery and slightly distorted reality. Good use of your imagination. The subject matter is a real treat. What mm lens were you using?
The tree in the foregound looks terrific, it is so overwhelming and majestic. The distorted angle only reinforces the atmosphere you wanted to achieve. Bravo!
thanks for the comments, i shot this with a 10mm lens, although i cropped this one to probably arounds a 13mm equivalent (on 1.5x D70) so that would be about equivalent to a 19mm lens on a film camera
