The Great Canadian Reflections (HDR)

[rylan]

Back again with another HDR image. Took this one standing on the veranda on the back of my house. I love living out here, regardless of having to drive 10 minutes to get cell phone service!

Processed this through Photomatix with 3 exposures! Thought it turned out pretty decent.

What do you think?

What a beautiful place !

I have few suggestions to make the photo even nicer than what it already is, all of these need a reshot
I think the composition can have more impact if the photo is taken from near the water level
Move the horizon to one of the thirds
Use a longer exposure to smooth out the reflection, may cause conflicts if there is more wind or maybe someone out in a canoe causing ripples
If taken with the 50mm lens probably switch to your wide angle zoom 10-20
The light is nice and even but not to dramatic, is there another time when the light might be better ?

Thanks Armando!

I took this shot over a KM away lol from way across the lake, on the deck of my house.

I can't get down there as it's all boggy swamp lol I wish I could though.

Really nice, Rylan. I would suggest cropping a bit off the top and the right (just the last pole) and darkening the reflection as its overpowering the land.
Very nice, beautiful colors

Thank you very much Gary!
