Cracking shot - hope you didn't get too wet!! Maybe a tad over sharpened as on the bottom edges of the roots there is a slight halo but that could be down to reduction in size for the web

Re: Torridon, Scotland

That is indeed a stunning shot James. The composition, perspective and over all processing is spot on. ++

Re: Torridon, Scotland

It looks like you post a very good drawing. How did you did this? With the colours and the 3D effect.

Re: Torridon, Scotland

Super shot James

Just the light and long exposure or any special processing to get the effect ?

Hi - just a straight photograph but with 0.9 solid ND filter to slow the shutter speed a bit & a 0.6 ND Graduated filter to stop the distant mountains bleaching out out as they were very bright compared to the dark water. It was raining like hell so had a pal hold an umbrella over the camera and lens to keep it dry whilst we got soaking wet. OK?

Re: Torridon, Scotland

I like everything about that apart from the fact I didn't take it. Seriously though great composition and processing.

But, did you plan this at home? Or were you creative at the moment?
