salut valerie
rien à redire
très belle compo et équilibre des couleurs parfait

tu as certainement remarqué une poussière sur ton capteur en bas à droite
tu peux regler ça sous pshop ou nettoyer ton capteur mais ça c'est pas gagné !
*à quand un nettoyeur intégré ou une imperméabilité à toute épreuve?
(et à moins de 4000euros)

Hi Valerie

A splendid moody shot from you! Really well taken!
It's quite rare that we get to experience such a thick fog and also in such a lovely time of the day - with a low-angled sun.
You did excellent to take an adventure that day - because that's what it was - and use you imagination in the best way possible and come back with such a capture that everyone that sees it will sure know and even feel like they were right there next to you.
Gorgeous atmosphere and composition!

Bravo and TFS
Horia

PS: hope you don't mind, but i made a small workshop in which i removed the dust spots and ran the image through neatimage for a better, silkier look of the mist. Hope you'll like it :)

Hello Valerie,
A mysterious mood in Alsace this morning!
Seems like the fog was dense and almost hiding the sun, and I can only guess what is behind the fine old
tree...
Nice work!

Hallo Valerie,
sehr stimmungsvolles, hervorragend komponiertes Bild, wirkungsvoll konzentriert auf sparsam gesetzte Elemente, mit wunderbarer Tiefe. Das weiche goldene Licht lässt bereits den ersehnten Vorfrühling erahnen.
Mit Dank und hertlichen Grüßen,

Alsace a long time ago is where my paternal grandparents came from...and now, because of Sumon, I followed a link of his to your wonderful and moody picture. And I think it not moody in a bad way as sad mood nor angry but in a way which shows the patterns of life in the tree through the dense atmosphere surrounding it. And it shows the quality of a Canon camera with good lens in the hands of someone who has a soul full of life...so I am happy tonight that I have "discovered" your photos...and I thank you for sharing them...

This is a good moody shot. From the other critiques it seems to evoke strong feeling from everyone and you should take that as a compliment to your work. Great job.

Bonjour Valérie,

J'aime bien l'ambiance de cette image, ce brouillard ajoute un gros plus à cette jolie composition. Il y a également un bel équilibre dans le dégradé des couleurs. Bien fait!

Hi Valeri,
A range of slightly contrasty colours has been desaturated in the misty diffused light creating a picture full of atmosphere of the trees and land.Good exposure for this shot. Well done.
