About the Image(s)
This was taken in Lofoten, this February. T=1/80 sec, f/2,8 and ISO=100.
It is a very quiet cemetery and a chapel near the sea. There were no colors, so it was not a challenge to turn it to a monochromatic – blue – photo

Janos,
Great photo looks very cold. Did the weather afffect your flight time and exposure? This is on my bucket list. I think this image is outstanding.

Thanks Alex, you should definitely go, plenty of places to drone. The weather was no so dramatic, not below minus 5 C. I flew once in Siberia at minus 26, that was cold but still worked. Posted: 05/07/2023 12:52:21
Great scene! If you wanted the blue look even better. I was in Lofoten in 2018 (I'm trying to remember if we went to this spot) and found many of the images needed massive WB corrections to get the snow whiter, which I did frequently.
Another possible composition choice would have been to move the drone left and rotate left putting the church in the lower right and the high peak in the upper left. Posted: 05/08/2023 12:27:49

Thanks. Indeed, I usually try different angles and altitudes, but here as soon as was up a person started to shout (in Norvegian) to go away with my drone. Although he had no right to banish me, I did not want to enter a (verbal) fight with him. Posted: 05/11/2023 09:57:16
Hello Janos, I love this image and I think the monochromatic blue works very well. I agree with Pete's suggestions regarding the composition. Overall I think this is a wonderful image, it seems so cold and desolate. Posted: 05/10/2023 11:13:19
Janos,
I get cold just looking at the image. I really like the image and your composition choice. Posted: 05/10/2023 13:22:35

Such a cold cold scene… the blue lends itself to the cold scene. Very nice. I need to go there! Posted: 05/24/2023 09:09:37
