Hi!
This photo,taken in a very late afternoon,almost in the evening,at Lake Edith,near Jasper,is one of my favorites.
The contrast between lights and shadows was too big so I had to shoot two photos ,one for the lights and one for the shadows and blend them together.
Of course, there are many ways or tools to do it but my favorite is to do it manually,using masks and layers blending. I think it works better than the usual HDR in Photoshop.
For the moment I will not upload the original version since I have it on a different computer,at home.
Thanks for taking a moment watching it:)

Beautiful landscape. Excellent colors and composition. I really like how you can see the rocks under the reflections.

Well seen and captured,

An excellent shot and masterful HDR technique. Well done!

Looks good, but I'm curious what the result would have been when you took five photo's instead of just two. The center of this image looks a bit odd to me.
The reflection of the clouds is great, also is the sky.

Regards

Just a beautiful photo with very different expressions

Hello Nelu,
Very cool photo and you've seemed to manage it all so well. Your processing makes this very interesting to look at, almost life-like. Good colors, well done!

Wonderful landscape photograph Nelu. The polarizer adds a lot of foreground interest to the frame. Beautiful saturated colors and great composition. Masterful pp! -Tunc

Hi Nelu,
great picture - I like the pebbles in the water and fantastic reflection of sky.
Cheers

Rocks at the bottom, reflection of the mountains, trees and sky at the water, magic sky and no any round line for a presence of a boat at the water... how do you get this marvelous picture? it's great and magic :-)

congratulations, it's one of a kind

Wonderfully rich colours Nelu. Great composition and reflection. I like the rocks through the water best. I have not had great luck with the blending method myself yet -- I might just have to try more though.

The day you are starting to give lessons in landscape photography and post-processing, I'm going to join. Do not forget to reserve me a place.
Honestly,
