| About |
I came across this outcrop of rocks covered with moss on an embankment which I thought might make an interesting shot. I think it's missing something though - not sure what. As always your comments are much appreciated and very welcome. Thanks.

Lynda,
nice to see your work again! I played around in PS a little with your photo and I hope you don?t mind. :)
What I made was just leveling the lightness, adding a little contrast and burning some hot zones.
I believe the cropping is fundamental in order for the subject to stand out.
But that isn?t important :) at all. what is important, and to answer your question is:
1. Wait for the right moment. Set your tripod, compose your photo and wait till that ray of light makes everything more clear and three dimensional.
2. Use a polarizing filter. It will take away those reflexes on the stones and leaves(the ones I burned) and will increase the saturation.
3. Use a low film, like Velvia 50 so you can have more definition and saturation.
4. Put your lens at 50 mm or more(and move away), that way the perspective wont get so distorted and you can compose with your subject leaving confusing elements out of the frame.
