Sunrise

[Canadian Mum]

Here is a shot of a sunrise...
I pulled over to the side of the road quickly, opened my window and snapped the shot. The only post processing was some cloning to remove a powerline that was running across the top.
Here is my shot, let me know what I could have done better.


This is the link to the original - complete with powerline - and exif data: http://www.flickr.com/photos/canadia...n/photostream/

My immediate thought was to crop out the front field, which distracts from the beautiful sunrise. So bring the crop up to the edge of the black where the barn is.

Hi Canadian Mum:
I like the shot and the colors of the sky. I took the liberty to play with it in photoshop to add some saturation to the colors. Heres is what I got. Hope you like it! Nice shot!

I did try to crop right up to the dark edge... but it leaves it in a weird proportion. I think if I were to put a fill in, to increase the black silhouette, that may help. I will try that!


oriolhdz,
I love that! I will have to show my daughter... as this is a picture of her friend's farm. I'm sure she will love it too... the colours seem to pop more!
