Thanks all for your feedback. Sadly, this shot does not work well in the small board compatible size... it loses much of its details and feeling of depth.

cheers

I too agree that the title is well-chosen.

Superb image. It works like a charm.

Thank you all! Glad you like it. It's not easy to have a B/W landscape getting good feedbacks. :)

cheers

Very nice, the clouds almost appear to be luminescent. The only thing that bothers me is that the horizon looks a little crooked.

Hi Protium. Youre the first to mention this little "flaw". It's one of the features of the waddensea. While the horizon is water, the foreground that makes the horizon in the right part of the shot is not really flat. That gives it a crooked look. I am not sure on how to correct that...

cheers

If you use the bottom of your browser as a straight edge to can see that it swings up on the right hand side. If you have photoshop CS or later it would be very easy to fix this with a warp transform. Double click and rename the background layer to unlock it, then go to
Edit -> Transfom -> Warp.

It really isn't all that crooked, just one of my pet peeves. It is a beautiful image regardless.

I didn't meant to say: I don't know "technically" how to correct that... but rather: the area I've shot isn't flat in real, so... how do I keep the nature as it is, yet correct the feeling of a "crooked" horizon... it's a walkl on a fine line between flattening everyting out, and leaving the scene as naturally as possible.

thanks for your hint anyway.

cheers
