Was at the joe mooney trad week in Drumshambo during summer,got up v early one morning,fog creeping everywhere, the landscape appearing and disappearing
This is really beautiful John, the Heron really makes the shot for me. The conditions are very atmospheric but the Heron really adds a focal point for the wandering eye, congrats on getting up so early and getting this one.
The early start was well worth while and you have produced a
well composed image full of athmosphere with loads of
interesting things to look at and the Heron as the “cherry on the top”.
I wondered what the colour looked like as early morning images like this
can be wonderful with low pale yellow light raking the scene.
Images like this can also look splendid with some subtle toning.
Just for fun I ran it through the Colorize tool in Hue/Saturation in PS Elements
and some very interesting results can be had.
It’s a fine shot, and I would echo 5faytes’ comments re toneing,
Slight niggle for me would be the vertical posts/trees intersecting the hoizontal line in the background,
But there isn’t anything you could have done about that,
Good work.
