Excellent work Stevie ~ great range of colours and elements, a fantastic photograph!
STEViE VOiCE replied
Thanks Jared, I think the rain helped me out a lot.. I’m guessing that the color was intensified by the rain in the distance ?

James Coard
Stevie – the star effect comes from the light refracting off the lenses aperture blades, it seems your lens has six blades! Nothing wrong with your gear or technique. It’s all good. :)
STEViE VOiCE replied
Thanks for clearing that up for me James :o)
I’m learning something new everyday!...

babibell
great! may i ask how you do the hdr? I’d LOVE to get photos like this, but always end up overediting them and not getting great results!
STEViE VOiCE replied
Cheers babibell :o)
This shot isn’t a HDR, but I use a program called Photomatix when I’m processing HDRs. Most of mine end up looking rubbish, but I’m sure that’s just me, not my editing software..
babibell
Oh right thank you. I’m sure they don’t!!

definately a cracker of a shot. Got the 50 and the sigma, i just need they grey grad now.
STEViE VOiCE replied
Cheers Dub..
I just use a cheapo ND2 grey grad, it doesn’t seem to make much difference, but it helps :o)
