Niek,
that landscape looks good in the clear and sharp light under a bright blue sky. Very sharp details, beautiful strong contrasts of light and shadow. I like the the open space with a large area given to the bright sky.

I would never have thought you enjoy these southern highland light conditions in the Netherlands. You have been very lucky with the weather that day. Vienna and the eastern alpine region have been soaked with cold rain and even snow in some higher valleys of the country the same day.

Thanks, and best regards,
Peter

Yes there was a beautiful sky today :-)
Good tree silhouettes agains that sky.
What exactly was the purpose of the nd filter here ? Is this a gradient filter ?

Hi Niek,

Your new camera seems to like clouds. Very nice. Your nd filter seems a little dark. I had a 1 stop one and was still getting burnout, so I just got a 2 stop one which was recommended by the best photo shop in Portland. I haven't used it yet. I would like to see a little more definition in the foilage...it looks dark on my monitor. I am having more trouble it seems uploading images to TN with adequate/accurate saturation and contrast. I don't remember it being so difficult. These tall skinny trees with foilage just at the tops are interesting.

TFS

glad to see you have found and nd filter... I have one, but mine is too weak, still looking for another one...

I really like the composition and the exposure and sharpness is spot on.

TFS

Hello Niek,
From the thumbnail I found myself in the tropics for a while...
Not palm trees then, but still very nice!
A very pleasant landscape captured with good details, all topped by this gorgeous sky...
Looks like a very nice place to unwind...
Greetings,

Very soothing and pleasant landscape. Niek.
We people living in the desert realize the value of nature in such a benevolent aspect.

Really nice picture! One thing I've always loved about the sky is how many different shades of blue you can see, even during the middle of the day. In this shot, you've captured the really dark blues (at the top of the picture) and some of the very pale blues (near the horizon). I do think that some of the trees are a bit too dark in places, but at the same time that looks nice because it offers great contrast against the white clouds.

HI Niek, super view of the trees, and especially with the stuning sky and cloud formations behind. Good shot, thank you
