Howdie stranger! If you want to participate in this contest, just:
I was out hiking recently and shooting landscapes and I came across this old truck in the woods. Certainly not what I expected to find while out taking shots of lakes and streams! (5 years and 3433 days ago)
I agree............ I am also curious as to what filter you used here, the truck itself looks almost HDR!
author says:
This was on a rainy foggy day, the rain had let up a bit when I took this,but you can see that the tires are wet. I used a polarizing filter to cut through the fog. The reason for the HDR look is that the truck is predominately red and orange so I played with the luminosity levels of those channels to lighten the truck overall then I added a bit of fill to brighten the darker areas. I also agree with the statements about having more of the surrounding area, I actually contemplated whether or I should put this in because of that. Since this was shot a few weeks ago and not with this contest in mind I cropped it down to take out the fallen tree that you can see the top of in the left side of the frame. But I figured there was enough foliage growing up over and around it that it should be ok.
Author, I rather like the HDR quality of the shot and have to say it's a good entry, although it could be argued about the surroundings, I believe it to be an excellent photo and on topic...well done
Lovely shot but can we get a hi res pretty please?
i really love this shot... but i have to second steve's request. it would be lovely to see this in hi res.
The small image was great, but the detail in the high res is stunning.
