About the Image(s)
This is part of our view from our back deck except we have trees that block some of it. One morning the sky was a beautiful pink and I saw some fog. I’ve been wanting to get moody fog images. So I drove down the road and found a look out area with this view. And I found fog in the valley! The sky was not quite as pink anymore. I took several shots trying to get a nice composition. It would have been epic if the local herd of elk was in that clearing, oh well…. Shot in RAW with my Canon R6 and kit lens at 70mm, 1/80, f8, iso200 handheld.
My first edits where too bright I felt. So several edits later I came up with this. I tend towards a fine art approach and feel. I wanted to keep it realistic yet have lots of atmosphere. I love the fog and the lighting as well as the pink sky that I had to bring back with editing (looks a little more purple) as I said it was almost gone by the time I got to the site. Please let me know how this image makes you feel. Do the edits work for a fine art image? Any critique is welcome. Thank you.
