Matterhorn 2

Pierre-Olivier,

nice serial about Matterhorn and area around it. I like this picture most because it shows the contrast from lower woody area to high alpine region best. And because Matterhorn seems hovering, not connected to the base ;)

 

Regards,

Andreas

I tend to prefer color over monochrome, but in this case, I think the shot is stronger without the distraction of the pretty colors. It allows the eye to better focus on the peak.

Nicely said and explained. Thank you Daniel

Pierre-Oivier, have you tried lightening the shadows in the foreground? I find the framing great, especially as it seems the peak is somehow dislocated from the ground. Nevertheless, I find the dark foreground a distraction. It may look better in uncompressed form and I am not sure that my laptop screen is helping either.

Huwge, are are referring to the color one or to the sepia one ? I do not have PS and my post-treatment is done by LR only, so I don't know a way for the lightening the shadows in the foreground without lightening the whole picture.

Thank you for you comment and advice.

Pierre-Olivier,

maybe you know it anyway, but I use gradiation curve in LR for brightness correction. It can be used also for partial correction, e.g. in the shadows. PS has certainly more appropriate tools for that, but it is worth a try. I hope you don't mind that I used your sepia picture as an example. It lost some of the the sepia tone and you may argue that it is an over all brightness increase, but it is only done with LR. My opinion is that the original picture is not too dark, but maybe it can be seen what I mean.

 

Cheers,

Andreas
