Are you using a GRad ND filter? It looks a little aggressive on 1 and 4. The first would be much stronger if you lightened the sky - it's unnatural for the sky to be darker than its own reflection. Thanks a lot, Mike -Mike www.natureindepth.com

No I did not use Grad ND filter, but I used a polarizer instead. The air was so clear and the sky was real blue that morning. Richard Chu

Stunning scenery where the mountain rises almost straight up for 4 km above the Yangtze River as it forces itself through the narrow gorge. I spent 2 months trekking China in 2001 and loved it. The unknown is magnificent

flumpki Member 168 posts Joined Oct 2005 Location: Los Angeles, CA, USA More info | As previously stated, this is a great series! I think my personal favorites though are the Stone forest and the one from the lushui jinsa show. Although, I'm sure if you were to ask me again in ten minutes, that could very well change. F.
