Here are two pictures of Boulder Creek. One of the great features of Boulder is that there is a bike path that runs right next to the creek the entire length of town. It is a beautiful place to walk and bike and think.
I was trying to do some tests with exposure lengths, depth of fields, and over/under exposures. I am not positive if these are the best pictures, but it is a judgment call. I have some very nice dark pictures in which you can barely see the details on the trees, but the creek looks a bit better.

I think there are ways of dealing with that in post-production, but I don't know how (it's all very complicated, and involves shooting in RAW format, doing layers and masks and maybe putting two pictures together. It's all more than I can cope with!) I usually futz around with Levels (in Photoshop).
ReplyDeleteIn any case, I like both of these a lot. I think because it is a little blown out, the creek in the first one looks like it's moving faster .
