Good shot and nice to see the BTS set up.

Your snappers shot made me feel good Phil...your rituals shot...not so much, but it is a really good image...

Week 16 - Monument
Testing out my new RF35mm F1.4 L VCM Lens - impressively sharp but needs software correction to sort out barrel distortion - I think this lens on my R8 is going to be my go-everywhere kit.

Canon R8, 35mm f.1,4 L VCM, -2 EV, 0, +2 EV HDR blended in Photomatix and then tweaked in Lightroom.

[Boots]

Very good

I like that a lot. The OOF areas look really vintage to my eye. I like the way the Bluebells anchor it to spring... the circle of life and all that.

 

[AlanDorset]

Striking result from the HDR treatment

 

[Darkslinger]

Nice shot Phil.

I like it. Not sure about the sky but I still like it.

I like it. Not sure about the sky but I still like it.

Thanks! Yeah the sky had some 'interesting' artefacts - I cropped out the worst of them but I agree it's the weakest area of the shot.

 

[Nostromo]

Nicely composed.

Really like the framing and the focus on the cross against the background, the sky and the tree on the rhs not so much

 

[SimonH]

Nice Phil. A simple but so effective monument
