Photograph and Camera talk

[Jett129]

Thank you,If I ever go again I definitely would stay in the park,because every day just as we were leaving the light was starting to get good. The roads to and from the park are pretty twisty and I wouldn’t want to be driving them in the dark.

Picture and a Song…

Bled (Slovenia), January 2020 at ~8.00AM in the morning, just after sunrise.
Shot on Sony A6000 with the mighty Samyang 12mm.
One of the most beautiful lake overviews I’ve ever seen.
Getting up early was worth it, I was the only one up there, which is a rare occasion at touristy lake Bled.

[Giles]

Love that

[weftyarn]

Glad you like the shot, Giles. Definitely a beautiful place to visit!

Another picture and a song. Always thought the song was called Waterfall.     

[weftyarn]

I was fascinated by all the leading lines, so I took out the camera.
Then this kid walked by and that made the picture.

@weftyarn That is a great picture!  Any chance you have one where they are about 3 or 4 steps forward?  It would look like they have the lines trailing them and were the cause of it…

[Jett129]

Great,Great shot.Has to be B&W. Really like everything about it.

[weftyarn]

Dang, now that you say it I can see it @goosehd …
I only took this one shot.

You are totally right that this should be a B&W shot, @Jett129

The original colored pic just doesn’t work:

[Jett129]

I test just about every shot that I edit to see if it looks good in B&W,just in case.

[Jestocost]

It isn't high art, but it's a photo I like quite a bit.

Canon 5d Mk III w/ 24-105 F/4

@weftyarn the B&W definitely has better contrast, but I don't dislike the color version. It's 'moodier', in a way. Either way it's a great shot.

[weftyarn]

Awesome, @Jestocost Love how you can see the expressions / reactions in all the people standing by the field.

Use of Selective Color of a leaf stuck in the snow. Perfect pic for a heatwave. 

[SKT]

Beautiful pic. I feel cooler already [emoji3587]

[Jett129]

Thanks,It was just random that I picked that file to clean up today. I literally closed my eyes and clicked on it from a drop down menu. Pretty funny.

[SKT]

You hit on a good one

[weftyarn]

Love the selective color on the leaf pic!!

Here’s a small selection of yesterdays hike from Wallberg to Risserkogel.
I don’t know why, but I somehow felt like taking many B&Ws.

// Not many height meters. But a perfect Sunday „scenery hike“ //

// The small chapel where our hike started //

// 360deg scenery, the goal always in sight (highest point on the other side of The Valley, too left corner of the picture), also lousy B&W Ansel Adams attempt //

// On the ridge, fantastic view to both sides //

// Final steep section to the top //

// The top //

// No, I will not share my sandwich with you //

// Top view aka lousy Ansel Adams II //

// Back down //

// His and hers //

My first time getting up for the Sunrise,this year. It really was this pretty. Took a phone shot which is unedited,because I thought no one would believe me. This is First Light about half hour before Sunrise 12K ISO.
