So glad to read some thoughts on composition Kevin. Thanks for the critique. This image is a glorious spooky drab colourfull thing with beautiful details Anson! Wish I could spot a compositional power point myself... hoping one day. The grass crackles beneath my feet and the sky is a painting. Would ten steps left darkening the background of the tree and giving the sky more space have worked for your intensions and adressed Kevins critique? I guess it would have obscured the church. Very deft post work.

Linda: Thanks for being a convincing advocate about this picture. I learned early on about photos that one persons junk is another persons treasure. I haven't changed anything on this one, and the prints look great. This little church is on the National Registry and the congregation meets once a year on Jan. 1. Anson

I have read the coments on this photo and I disagree with any of the negativity. This is a perfect shot in my mind and I would not chane perfection. I love the look! I think the compostion is perfect. My eye goes directly to the church and then wanderd to the graveyard of parissioners. If you deside to change anything about this phot Keep the Original because you just may want it back again. A++++++++++++ for this one.

Mel: Thanks for the comments on this one. I have enjoyed your portfolio much, especially "Taking Flight" with the 5AM shot of the bird in flight. A similar mood to what I tried to achieve here. This shot was taken at 2 PM though! Anson

Patrick: Certainly happy to share any info I have with anyone on this forum, as long as it is legal to do so. Firstly,make sure camera WB is set in custom mode on green foliage, or in this case on the white church. I use PS CS2, although other versions ought to work. Set channel to red channel and gradually reduce red setting to around 80%. Go to blue channel and increase red slightly. This should give you a sepia like look. Go back to red channel and tweak a little. Anson

Really like this one. in response to kevins comment; I'm not in disagreeance, however I acctually like what it does to your eye. Yes it does seem like there are two seperate images, in which the eye has a hard time trying to decipher the desired focal point. But i feel this montage of the two images creates a neat feel of its own. Really nice work Anson.

Martin: Thanks for the critque and nice comment. If I had to redo this image, I would reduce the highlights around the trunk of the tree to the left to make it less eye catching. Will do that before I make any print. Anson

Anson,
Very well seen indeed, but I do agree with Kevin somewhat. A change in the vantage point would solve everything. Just shoot this 25 feet over to the left and then the church would fit.
But then again, I wouldn't change a damn thing. I have been staring at this Masterpiece for 10 minutes and I will probably stare another 10.
Well done my friend,
Martin

another excellent shot in infrared i think you certainly have mastered that technique and your choice of scenes are so good ,here you have turned a resting place into a dreamy atmospheric place.that house (church) is perfectly placed which shows you have a great eye for composition.
well done once again.

Hezer: Thanks for the comment and the edited image. For some reason the B/W image I brought up from the thumbnail was very contrasty. I will have to play with that one in PS. Thanks much for the alternate view. Anson

Wow, you've definately found a very cool look here and it benefits the style of all your images, they look great so far. 89B and channel mixer, eh? Hmmm... have to remember that.
On the topic of this one, specifically, though, I think it's the least effective of all your fascinating images so far because although the lines of the graves and your horizon all lead the the church, the center of the tree on the left is a bright spot right at a compositional power point and it pulls focus and leaves this feeling like two seperate images put together. My eye doesn't know where to go and it doesn't rest right. I think there's maybe too much subject too spaced apart for one frame here.
