p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Wedge Pond - Kananaskis - Fall Colour - Alberta

Before I headed off for Italy vacation, I shot some early light at Wedge Pond in Kananaskis.

After finally getting around to looking at them, I kind of liked them.

So here are my best of the morning.

1-3 of 3

Comments and feedback are appreciated.

And more from 1 - stitched - to see if you have suggestions on cropping

Composition is nice, but I'm seeing some posterization happening in the clouds.

junglialoh: Thank you for the feedback. Wedge Pond is usually really good in the fall. Much appreciated. Scott

chez; Thank you for the feedback. I just switched to LR after cycling and buying an adobe RGB monitor. I will go back reprocess. The auto exposure followed by photoshop touch ups might have gone too far. Much appreciated. Scott

That's my favorite from the set.
Great bottom part from foreground all the way to mountains tops. And I wish there was at least 2 times more of that gorgeous sky covered than it was with keeping the bottom part as presented.

P.S. Maybe by lovering the camera position (to retain the same foreground elements ) and going in portrait to keep the mountains at bottom 1/3rd and giving the sky the top 2/3rds?

Nice images but way oversaturated. Colors/saturation in clouds is actually clipped. So you may way to back down saturation quite a bit. But other than that, nice shots.

Neat images. It sounds like the group agrees on cutting the saturation a bit. I like #3 shot and would love to see that after your fine tuning is complete.

A beautiful morning, you were at the right place at the right time. I much prefer the stitch for composition. Agree with others on the saturation and clipping in the clouds. A little fine tuning and you'll have a print worthy shot.

Great comps but all sorts of weirdness going on in the sky and shadows. Colors are clipping in the clouds, and can't tell if it's noise or just artifacts from pushing colors too far.

Shouldn't be noise based on your ISO so something must have happened in post.

Okay I recalibrated my monitor. Read all about SRGB vs ARGB, and retried my processing.

Hopefully better.

Thank you all for your input.
