“The Endless Plains”
Golden burnt crop fields, endless plains, and those so lonely trees, waiting for the next moment of shadow and water…
_Vast scapes where the mind wanders and reflects about this world we live in, about its diversity and magnanimous power, about the smallness of a single human being, compared to the gigantic capacity he has of tearing apart the soil he steps…_
Let us be different. Let us try..

Photo taken on a trip to my home land, the city of Beja, and its vast surroundings, know for its endless plains and strong heat, but also by such a powerful feeling of serenity and infinity.
Pentax K10d
Sigma 10-20
ND Grad filters + ND filter
Technique – The light was a bit dull in this afternoon, so I went to try a double exposure, with a long exposure for the sky and regular exposure for the land, to achieve than clean sky with a strong sense of flow. Exposure blending in the end.
Post-processing – levels, colour balance, saturation, sharpness.
