About Circular polarizer; Shutter speed: 1/60 sec (foreground) and 1/250 (sky); Aperture: 8; Exposure mode: Av; Metering mode: Evaluative; ISO: 100; Lens: 17 to 40mm; Focal length: 40mm; Subject distance: 655 m; Image quality: Raw; White balance: Auto; ; Color space: sRGB; Saturation: High; Sharpness: High; Contrast: High; Tone: Normal Composite shot, one exposed for the foreground (1/60) and another for the sky (1/250) because of wide dynamic range. About an hour after a heavy thunderstorm, it was damp and misty, and I was attacted by the haze. Was disappointed at the overcast sky image, but 2 stops underexposed there was enough detail, then enhanced using `multiply` with layers in PS. The sky image and the foreground were then stacked in PS, with a gradient layer mask for smooth transition. The foreground layer was quite dull, I tried a blending layer with `vivid light` (about 50%) and spotted this effect for some parts of the image (wood) with another layer mask and a brush because the effect on the foreground was unnatural. Another layer to reduce brightness selectively in the grain field, and at last sharpening. A lot of postprocessing, but the lighting was unsuitable even with selectively exposed RAW images.

Even though it looks somewhat "processed," it is certainly very beautiful, and ultimately that's what's important! Great work.

It a lovely image but I think the sky needs to get away from the trees. I have a feeling of suffocation looking at the sky just above the tree tops. Otherwise excellent colors and a beautiful scene.

Cheers, Hesham

I can say that all the post processing has paid off! This is a stunning, almost supernatural capture. Nice composition also.
One for my favorites!
Congrats,

Martin

Yes it is an interesting image, but I must say it looks quite unnatural. that is not bad if that is the look you are going for --- the light just doesn't look as one might anticipate when seeing this.

Interesting though
