CCC: Season 3 - PDI 4

Struggling now to find half decent images.... hope the judge likes landscapes....

Evening Calm - Hunstanton in Norfolk.  Unedited version, shot in RAW. Usual shadow and highlights need some work, I also feel there is a little too much sand and the tones need to be warmer. We won't mention the horizon!!


Evening Calm - Final Version. Not sure if the judge will get the cloud shape lines up with the sand shape but you can only try - I prefer the warmer feel to the image.


Judges Comments: Very calming, slow shutter speed works well, like the banding of colours through the image. Rock holds the eye. Score: 8.5

Misty Sunrise: Richmond - Pens Ponds - end of November.  The most beautiful morning.  Warmer tone needed, shadows and highlights - don't like the tree in the top left and unsure of the grasses in the fore ground. To clone out or not to clone out.....


Misty Sunrise: Final Version. Still not sure about those grasses......


Judges comments: Sense of calmness, not sure on the reeds. Can understand why they are there, bland corner otherwise, however not sure if they are actually needed. There was enough band of colour and water texture not to have them. Score: 7.5
