Cliffs at Cahercommaun Fort, the Burren 1
-
Hi all
I took this photo of cliffs at sunset near Cahercommaun Fort in the Burren, County Clare in the west of Ireland. I was drawn to the type of woodland in and around the cliffs. It is not the typical type of woodland that you see around Ireland. I guess it is due to the barren landscape of the Burren. It somehow reminded me of a trip the south of France I made many years ago.
this just looks flat to me, the tree to the far upper right looks more interesting place to take a shot.
Hi Philip
I don’t really think it’s flat. I didn’t want to turn into a surreal HDR type image. The sun was just setting so it was very subdued. On pages with my panoramic images on my website you have an option to view the image in a larger size. If you do that you’ll have a better picture, parden the pun of what the image is like :wink:Hi Enda,
I’m with Philip on this one. The issue isn’t the subdued colours, it’s the lack of contrast. I think it’s especially noticeable on the rock wall in the foreground. I even popped the JPEG into PS to double-check, but obviously it’s a subjective issue.

Leave it processed as it is. I really like the colours in this and the contrast is just right. The true test is to print the picture onto paper and see what it looks like there…
Right I thought there was something up when 2 were saying the contrast was low. I looked at this and my site and I thought I was going crazy but I thought the 2 images looked different. The contrast on the image on this site was indeed low. It turns out the link to the image on this post was to an incorrect version of the image. I’ve changed the path so this is the proper version. The contrast is a good bit higher. :oops:
Sorry about any confusion.
