Hi,

Just want to know what has happened here?

Done using a Sony A7 - 16-35mm lens and a Lee Big Stopper

Completely unedited in any way. Seems to have blown all details in the trees and there is a strange 'banding' on the image.

All data is on flickr.

Looks under exposed, exif says, shutter 107?..........................107 what? seconds, minutes, hours?

Firstly its very blue. a common WB issue with LEE big stoppers.

i dont think anything is blown out and the banding is just where theres lighter cloud in the sky

i have done a very quick edit before i go out to show you LR settings

hope it helps

Doesn't seem as bad here - seemed worse in LR. Also done a quick edit.

Seconds - I agree. It is underexposed.

I think you need to turn the brightness down on your editing monitor by quite a bit.

I, too, don't see anything blown.
Sky banding is merely light through cloud.
Straighten it, tinker with WB and exposure. Play with it.
I suspect there are several pleasing outcomes.

Thanks. There was banding in LR but on uploading to Flickr it wasn't there, think I've sorted it now thanks.

I like it as it is but the horizon is very wonky. I think the edits are a little too correct, the blue tone and dark look is atmospheric to me

i think it depends on what time of day he was shooting at if it was at dusk/dawn maybe the blue tone would be more likely to be as it was
