Re: The Golden Grate
Very nice colours John.
Were you wearing just one shoe? ;)
We don't get a 'fall' or Autum colours like that here unless the trees are introduced. No native deciduous trees here, though there is one in Tasmania.

Re: The Golden Grate
Nope.. that is just a trick of the prespective of the shot. If you notice the dock in the foreground it is parrallel to the camera, but the far side of the lake looks tilted. The camera was level on the tripod... Sometimes you just can't win.:rolleyes::)
Thanks for looking.

Re: The Golden Grate
Hey John I agree, I was just having a little fun :D
Still - why let a little perspective get in the way of some creative editing ;)

Re: The Golden Grate
Nice edit. The perspective did make it uncomfortable viewing I thought.

Re: The Golden Grate
I'd have done it even more simply ..... I'd just have turned it and cropped it to be square.
No offence John, but I have to admit I have difficulty believing that the camera was level on the tripod .... It just looks too far out of level .....
EDIT: Photograph removed -See below

Re: The Golden Grate
Keith that works of course, but removing the foreground dock looses some depth to the photo.
Also, you've removed Johns copyright which in reality, in spite of being edited by us, should be retained. ;)

Re: The Golden Grate
True - Just to be on the safe side, I will delete the picture.
Steve that was a nice seamless edit you did on it by the way. I can't see where it was edited.

Re: The Golden Grate
Keith, I cloned the photo, removed the bottom, rotated it to level the bank (against a guide) then used a linear transparency on the rotated cropped clone to blend at the river level into the untouched copy beneath.
Less that 30 seconds to make a lovely scene comfortable to view.
At the mention of tripods, a small string-level is useful to help check the tripod is true. Though I must admit I rarely bother with a tripod now that I have learned how not to shake when I shoot ;)

Re: The Golden Grate
Nice edits guys...
Anything below 1/30 with an IST DS and you will start to blur with the camera handheld. The higher the F-Stop (the wider the DOF) the longer the exposure has to be to see anything. For instance, this shot from today has an exposure too long with out a tripod. When I have the time, I use a tripod and a remote release. It makes for a cleaner sharper picture, even at shorter exposures.
