Sam Emerson's picture

Lake Serene

Can't think of a more appropriately named place than this. Woke up around 0330 to beat crowds, and barely did. Had the place to ourselves for long enough to get a handful of shots, can't wait to go back!

pretty shot there Sam i usually hate blowouts but it makes for nice contrast and emphasis against the trees. like you said with mine maybe pull out some shadows where the tree line meets the lake on the left other stuff would be purely knit picky like cleanliness ..well done

Thanks Joseph. Agree with you on blowouts, they're not usually to my taste either. And yeah, it could use a little more fine-tuning, I appreciate the comments!

btw im in the market for a 14mm lens what are you using

Tamron 10-24 f/3.5-4.5

i just bought this, this morning

it was in my budget and im not trying to go pro so it should be able to get me what i want out of it

Nice! Look forward to seeing what you shoot with it!

thanks Sam hopefully get to try it out this weekend

The color and textures on this shot are tops, lighting and definition of a subject matter could be better. In particular the top left dark tree region might be throwing off the general balance of this photo.

Thanks Francisco, looking at it now I wonder if I might have been better served moving a little to the left and trying that comp. Cheers!
