Wonder what sort of bikes the Ringwraiths would use.......
Tad dark but that would fit with the title.

Excellent shot, I love the clouds and mountains. The color temperature of the bright spot in the clouds is a bit too warm for my tastes, would like to see a more white tone (not solid white, but closer to). The contrast in the clouds is also a bit excessive for my tastes, but not by much. I would also like to see the bikes on the left side of the shot, so they aren't pointing out of the frame.

Really amazing feel to this one. a tiny bit of yellow cast, but i guess that's understandable for that time of day. there's a tiny bit of a halo around the helmet that i think u can burn in a tiny little that would improve this.

overall, really nicely done!

This one could be a magazine ad. LOL Killer processing for certain, with that said I would like to see a version with you on the other side of the frame.

[Don Schaeffer]

I love the HDR here

Thanks guys. Agree it is a bit too dark, but my processing usually is.

Just a thought. The mountains are very dramatic, but the cycles are very passive, especially with the parking lot lines.

imagine if the bright spot was between the two peaks in the middle of the shot ? like the big eye from the lord of the ring series

Awesome image!

I have come back to this shot about 10 times since you posted it and each time I like it more. I love the contrast in colors around the mountain top and the dramatic sky is obviously what drew you to take this shot. Nice eye on seeing the scene and capturing it so well.

thanks jaedon. Yeah sometimes the camera does not see what you do. And sometimes it does.

Very dramatic Daq. But strangely enough, I want to see more of the area under the bike, more parking lot that is (how's that ?). I do like the bikes, but, to me, they seem too simple a subject against the grand, mysterious mountains, sort of out-of-place. Ahh, what can you do...

I kind of understand what you mean. I will sacrifice a goat for visual interest next time.

Or if a goat isn't available, maybe a tourist.
