I am really keen to get feedback on this one!

Appreciated, as always.

I really like it, William. It's a truly creative use of the camera. Amazing light. How long did you wait for this, or did you chance on it (HCB "Looking is everything.")? Either way, Bravo!

Likewise. It's quite excellent. I wouldn't change a thing.

Hi Russ, thanks!

I was on my way to take pictures of someone's farm this morning...there are three of these ponds on the way and I caught a glimpse as I passed the first one and decided that I would stop at the second.
We are having some very misty mornings here and I will go there tomorrow specifically to see what else I can get.

I see a bit of banding when I open it here, but it's ok in 16bit.

Thank-you Eric too!

Very nice!

[William Walker]

Very nice!

Thanks Slobodan...no "nit-picks".....phew!! I can relax! 

I hope you are well?

Now that you mention it... The sun is a bit too close to the right edge... Content Aware Fill to the rescue?  Then again, it is a panoramic format, so less objectionable.

...I hope you are well?

Thanks for asking. I am...now.

As some of you might remember, my original career was in corporate finance, cut short by the Great Recession. In the years since, it has been very difficult to return to it. It was equally difficult to start a new career in architectural photography from scratch, at least at the level that pays the bills. A few days ago I finally got a job offer: I will be finance manager for Johnson & Johnson, in their facility in Indiana. That will be a tremendous change for me, after the biblical seven years of famine.

Great news! I hope everything goes as smoothly as our move did! And now I will see more of Indiana...?

Congratulations, Slobodan!
Except for the general state of Photography (payment-wise), I feel you deserve to get rich from the architectural shots of yours I've seen. But the real world does have a way of intruding, doesn't it.

Good luck with your new career, and do keep posting.

I've always liked the democracy of a centred horizon line.
