I'm working on adding fog to this image and am wondering if I could get some feedback.
I also want to change the snowy brown grass patches to green grass but I'm not sure of the most efficient way to achieve this.
Hi Kyla. Agree with Bob. Wait for green grass in the spring. I think you did a pretty good job adding the fog, but I like the original shot without the fog also. (adding too much fog will make the strong shadows on the deck look out of place).
Looks like a nice spot to enjoy a glass of wine and read a few dozen good books....
Hey it looks like we are neighbors at the bighorn.
I think the fog does make it look better. But rour picture has chopped the bottom off the chairs akwardly and does not look worth saving from that perspective.
You could try magic wand on grass and select similar and then up the saturation but it would be very difficult given the bars on the gates.
I think you need a different day or a different time. I find at the bighorn the best time to shoot is really early morning. The sky is more dramatic.
By the way there is some fantastic shots down the hill on the river. I will send you a link.
Nice touch - but the trees at the right probably shouldn't be obscured by fog given their proximity to the building and elevation (as the two central trees are not). The smoothness of the image textures strikes me as something rendered by a graphic program such as Pov-Ray rather than a digital capture.
Also, considering further and at least for this geographic area, ground fog would not obscure the higher elevations of the mountains or the sky - rather it stays in the lower areas. Again, only a local perspective, the image reminds me more of either smoke or haze, and not fog per se.
