Well Done ThOnda!

Is this it here?

Great shot!

ThOnda · 11-10-2009 11:49am

Holy crap!
Thank you all for such reaction. But all praise shall go to Borderfox - he had pointed at the picture and gave me all the instructions what to do with the file. Funny thing is, that I have received an e-mail from the magazine that they won't use the picture :-)
And it is a little processed version of the picture above.

Edit: The picture is panorama from 15 RAW hand held snaps, fixed manual focus, focal length 24 mm, f/11, 1/100s, ISO 400, manual exposure, processing in LR (dust spot removal and ND graduated filter), and panorama merged in CS4. Then just to straighten the horizon and crop, crop and crop again, to fill the frame with data and to get rid of the blank white areas. I am not very happy about the panorama, but well, there is still room for improvement

Thank you all, it is very nice surprise.

Well Done btw.

The Field comes out on a saturday, they tend to disappear quick tho. Did you get a copy? If not let me know, ours might still be knocking around at home if you want it.
