Really nice image - the atmosphere, structure, and color/tonalities...and especially those highlight spikes of red orange. There is a lot of harsh gradation/banding color and otherwise in the JPEG? Is this from down-res?

The color of puke or baby diarrhea comes to mind. Very unsettling.

Very nice, I had to wait to open it on a computer screen. I feel like there are 2 shots in one, left vs right. Any other framing options?

Thank you for the feedback, gentlemen. Brand, the banding has bothered me too right from the gitgo. The original shot is a NEF from a D600. Although lighter the color banding is in it too. My expertise doesn't extend far enough to mitigate it. It does get worse as the res is dropped going into a JPG. armand, the file could be flipped horizontally or squared if I understand your question. Not sure it would work with the light on the right;goes against convention?

Your title captured it perfectly, and is why I like it. The second one too, for the same reason.

The problem in the sky should be fixable, or at least subject to amelioration.

Love both images, banding or not. I once used polaroid slide film which exhibited properties like these images. They create a painterly mood with their denser, almost moist laden light, like light through a fine mist. From what I have read, you may be able to download a trial version of Topaz, which may work on these images. I am wondering if the air was misty that it it creates conditions for moire type effects?

The color palettes are very nice...
some how the photos seems too sharp because it reminds of old paintings - and we want to see something we are familiar with...

Kers, it probably is and could do with some blur. A couple more. Would like to see someone else's work.Headwaters is an abandoned homestead at the start of the Green River in the Wind River Range in Wyoming.
