Title: Panorama from the morning light
Post by: Rjohan on August 18, 2012, 04:01:59 am

Hello everyone!

So, this morning I had the alarm set to 03:20. During this week we have had quite a lot of fog in the morning here in Stockholm, Sweden. Lovely, but it's annoying that you can't go out and shoot when you're on your way to work..
Today I had some nice fog and got some shots I like. The image below is a panorama made by 9 vertical images. Hope you like it!

Early bird! I like it but wish that the sky had more features (either a bit more contrast or colours; certainly not Velvia-like). It's a peaceful shot.

Edit: I'm looking at your image on my very old MacBook display, so my remark might not be valid at all.

Thank you for the comment! The sky is kinda weak in the colors but that's how I saw it that morning, I don't like to push my images too much in LR.

To me, the most interesting part of the image is the mid-right.  The foreground doesn't do much for me at this size. I think I would crop out 2/3 of the left and work with the horizontal lines formed from the fore,mid and backgrounds.

I agree that the elements don't quite hang together somehow. Crop off the right 1/3?

Got to see it on a proper display and the sky is just right. You're right, for that kind of image, no need to push saturation…

Thank you for the critique about the crop, I'll try it out!
