About the Image(s)
Cadillac Mountain is the highest peak in Acadia National Park. Several friends and I intended to photograph the early morning view. As you can see there was no view that day. However the rain and fog gave us a special view. I had taken several shots from this spot and thought to myself, "if only someone had a red umbrella". Suddenly someone did and I was thrilled.
Dehaze was used to brighten up a foggy scene. The other adjustment was adding a little more foliage to the lower right corner which had a significant spot of very dark wet soil which pulled the eye down and away from the focal point.

But when I look at this I do wonder if the foreground adds anything to the image or in a way draws you away from the man and the umbrella. The bush and the crack connect to do that. So I tried out a crop which I must admit I quite like and still gives the feel of a wet day watch the sea.   Posted: 07/08/2020 12:31:32

The coastline of Maine brings back many wonderful memories. You were fortunate to get someone with a red umbrella, but we never saw the sun, mornings or nights, during the full week of the 2013 Portland Maine PSA Conference.   Posted: 07/09/2020 11:38:59
