    Brilliant Richard; wonderful colours. Did you use a polariser.

  • Richard Veal replied

    Thank you Andy, and no. I didnt.
    I wonder how it would have turned out if I did ?
    I always keep my lens hood on though, and my white balance is 99.9% of the time set to cloudy.
    Whether all that helped I will never know.

  • brian pendrey

    brian pendrey

    great work brill hdr

  • Richard Veal replied

    Many thanks Brian.
    You have reminded me to add ‘This is not an hdr image’. :-))

  • AndyReeve

    AndyReeve

    Well it seems to have picked its way thru the water in the foreground. Could it be that this area was in shadow? (= no reflections)

  • Richard Veal replied

    As you know Andy, the water is crystal clear down there, and that was a slipway and quite shallow.
    I suppose that is why it looks like I used a polariser. :-)

    I just love the look of these small Cornish villages and you’ve captured this one so well.

    Nothing wrong with HDR I suppose – I’ve been playing around with it a little bit recently, with mixed results. BUT, isn’t it always more satisfying to get it right in camera, like this? This is beautiful. Best wishes, Iain

  • Richard Veal replied

    To true Iain.
    I am not against HDR, and I think that some pics do look better for it, but for the life of me, I cant understand why people pay £1k on a camera, and another £3-400 on a lens, then hdr a shot.
    You could get the same results with a £50 special from tesco.
    Thanks for the comment and the fave also.
    Very much appreciated.

    stunning light & reflections
    True cornish light,
    It is no surprise so many artists decamp to St Ives

  • Richard Veal replied

    Many thanks Mike.
    Even though this is on the opposite coast, there is something very special about the light down there.
    Luckily we are going there next Saturday for a week in Looe, back for a week, then off to the Lizard for a week.
