[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
In fact this is an experiment
It was a good photo in my opinion
But I am a caterpillar never enough
I made the photo darker by levels
Change the mode from 8bit to 16bit
Used tone mapping
USM 0.3 165 0
Converted back to 8 bit
And set the levels in 8 bit again

Wow - superbly done! Great composition and saturation, and very good pp/filter work on the sky, it suits the shot so well.
This is breathtaking!

Hi Ruud,

A very idyllic picture of our beautiful Dutch landscape! Great compo and POV, great reflections. Like the pp-work! TFS, Bianca.

It looks like an impressionist painting!

Hi Ruud,
This channel with water-lilies reflections and nice curve leading us towards the wind mill compose a very bucolic image! Vivid colors and sharpness. I don't know how you made this experiment. You could put for us the original in workshop for seeing the tranformation. Very well done! Annie

Just beautiful. Love the effect created here.
Well done

Knap effect, maar vooral een knap stukje Hollands landschap, Ruud. Mooi vastgelegd met een uitstekende compo. Interessante PP-techniek voor de kleuren, zal ik ook eens wat mee spelen.
TFS!

Hoi Ruud,
Just one remark:PERFECT!
Hans

Hi Ruud,

Very creative PP work, resulting to a lovely image, with excellent saturation, lighting and clarity.
TFS,

Where is that place, I love it!?!
Hi Ruud, that's wonderful, I'd like to visit it too, a wonderful romantic place - and I guess you also will find plenty of dragon- and damselflies there?!? Thanks for sharing, bye and greetings

Hello Ruud,
Lovely landscape with a couple of Dutch icons!
The windmill and the canal stand strong, good lines in composition...
Lovely reflections and rich attractive colours!
Greetings,

Hoi Ruud,
Een super mooie foto. Vooral de bewerking heeft de foto een heerlijke sfeer meegeven. De lucht is erg bijzonder. Er mooi qua compositie waar de sloot me echt de foto in trekt.
Doe jij je tone mapping in photoshop?
Groeten,
Niek

Hoi Ruud,

De bewerking heeft de foto zeker aantrekkelijker/spannender gemaakt alhoewel ik het origineel ook al een plaatje vind. Veel hollandser kan het niet worden :)
Kun je mij uitleggen wat de omzetting van 8 naar 16 bits en terug bewerkstelligt?

ik vind het een hele mooie foto.

mvg, lavinia
