So good it almost looks fake! Great work. The only thing I would change in this pic is maybe cloning out the reflection (?) along the bottom edge towards the right.

Care to share exif and PPing adjustments?

I was just cleaning my camera/lens and I noticed that the 17-55 was a little stiff when turning zoom ring. My 10-22 is smooth, but my 17-55 is a bit stiff. Is this normal?

The stiffness in my copy changes a bit around maybe 35-45mm...in that area it gets a little more stiff. Overall, I wouldn't call the zoom mechanism exactly smooth.

Thank you! Yes that's a stray cloud and I thought about removing it. I should be able to clone it out and also in the sky so it will look correct. Good feedback.

Exif info: f8 at 1/125sec, ISO100

I manually blended 2 exposures in Perfect Effects (Perfect Photo Suite 6) and also used that application to process the resulting image.

Thank you butterfly!

Here is another but from Yellowstone near the lower waterfall. Amazing place!

Thank you very much.

Doug, I'm really digging the 2nd one. Great colors. Reminds me of the colors of this one I recently processed:

From a valley in Yellowstone as sunset was nearing.

So, the next one is from inside the bar? Or on the other side of it? (can't decide if we're zooming or traveling)

;)

Yes, the haze was actually snow falling in the distance. The orange sky was edited in though. A bit of creative license. Thank you.
