Frozen Sunset

Posted by Bill Ault (GBA, Canada) on 11 January 2009 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

This was a difficult shot to capture the reflected sun caused a lot of issues with exposure - more than I expected - I assume because it was ice causing the reflection and not water...

You did very well! That warm sun and the cold, blue snow! Excellent work!

beautiful shot Bill - and nice technique, either in-camera and/or pp to get the visual balance right when exposing sky and scenery.

@baobab: mostly pp because I didn't do quite well enough in-camera... a few more today (Sunday) that were a little better in-camera and pp... stay-tuned....

You did a great job here... in an obviously uncomfortable environment.
