Nice field Tom and it has come out very well at the larger size available on this site. Well spotted mate.

Hi Miles, it's actually due to a cheap warm polariser which I don't use now. The tint fortunately is easily removed in photoshop.

Hi Roger thanks for your kind comments, not to may days like this and they usually occur in May and in late September, early October. I find July and August are usually a washout, wet and miserable, not to mention the presence of the mad McMidge.

Hi Joe, very fair comment it does actually match the original tranny but the tranny was velvia and the polariser enhanced the colours still further. Your crop suggestion is spot on as the blue sky feels like a little bit of dead space on the left.

Thanks everyone the colour sat matches the tranny which was Velvia, of course a polariser further intensifies the colour.

Good considered comment Rick. I do indeed have the very version you suggest on my files. i think the reason I prefer this view is the contrast of round and flat shapes together with the sheer variety of subtle colours. The wall actually shows the battering that it receives from these pebbles as they clatter and grind against the rock. The black hole is just intended to provide a final resting point for the eye. It is unfortunately a geological fault I wasn't able to avoid yet still include the wall.

Hi Paul. The smoggy effect is wind whipped spray being backlit by the sun. I think it gives it the necessary ethereal look.

Hi Benedict,
The Pentax 67II is indeed a med format camera the lens equivalent of a 35mm system is infact approx 28mm. However the 6x7 actaually goes to F32 extending depth of field even further at the apparently negligible expense of lens diffraction effects.
Naturally to extend depth of field I utilise the hyperfocal focussing technique for virtually every shot I do. (if you are not familiar with this technique it is worth reading about it, roughly speaking it means focussing approx a 1/3 of the way into the image). Hope that helps clear it up.

Hi John, needless to say I have both versions, both seem to work well though some prefer less of the blue sky.

Hi Lius, well of course I have the standard panoramic as well but since everyone that comes to this place takes that shot I saw no point in recreating the standard scene. Maybe I will upload it later on.

I agree it certainly does deserve more interest. You have framed it beautiful and tha painting with light has been executed very well though I think you might have lingered a fraction to long on th tangerine at the right of the picture as it is close to burning out.

No, this is near enough identical to the original transparency as viewed on a light box. I always try to match the Velvia original as it seems to be preferred by clients. The sea fog is responsible for this radiated light, it bounces it about and diffuses it at the same time.

Hi Dave
I used a 0.6ND grad soft edge on the sky. I do very little in photoshop as I always strive to keep it an accurate match for the transparency.

Thank you to all that commented. I always enjoy placing my work on Use film. To Andrzej what ever the level you work at all comments and intelligent criticism is valid. A good photographer benefits from these just as much as praise.
Thanks again Ian.

Hi James it is just past the Lecht ski resort bordering Moray and Aberdeenshire on the Aberdeen side of the resort. It is not a pretty castle though.

Hi James thanks for having a look through my portfolios I hope you are enjoying them. All the images you see are as close to the original slide as I can make them, for both density and colour, something I regard as very important as I want the person viewing the image to know that if they had been there too, they would have witnessed what I saw.

Hi Ned
Yes both of thesefilters were used to extract a little extra detail and contrast from the sky and allow the slightly backlit grass to really glow. The polariser only had a marginal effect on the sky as the angle of view in relation to the sun wasn't at its most favourable.
