Beautiful view of Quabbin – last time I was there, we were treated to a good Bald Eagle show!

That’s beautiful. What a relaxing spot. The colours are very nice, too bad about the slightly blown out sky.
LudaNayvelt replied
thank you , yes, I am agree, this is from sun, we was there very limited amount of time ( new place also), I could PS the white place, I guess
Adrian Geronimo
great composition and colors here. those little powershots do pack a lot of
punch don’t they? if not for the info one would think it was taken with a dslr.
one tiny detail though, always keep an eye when turning up the saturation
and using color filters in post production. you got some green halo around the
top of the mountains in the right upper part of the frame. other than that,
it’s totally gorgeous. you basically got my retirement dream out of my head and
into a photograph. well done!
LudaNayvelt replied
yes, I actually took same shot with Nikon D60, but Powershot have AB, and it’s helped a little with toning highlight & Shadows. it was a little difficult to get perfect shot in this time of day. thanks Andrian
