Default One Summer Evening


sunsets and car crashes

Well it's winter here again... time to dig through pics i forgot about.

Thoughts?

Shutter Speed:1/6400 second
Aperture:F/2.8
Focal Length:15 mm
ISO Speed:100


haha. Ok. So I was shooting wide open, with super fast shutter speed. Because I was in a rush. I ended up getting a MASSIVE amount of vignetting, which i mostly corrected in post... However, I was able to shoot super fast & without a tripod, haha. So long story short. Could be better, but I still think I captured something here.

The place is nice but the sun is too dominating, a smaller aperture would be the solution
You'll get rid with of the darker edges too then.

I also think you have something there, but agree about the sun. The light it casts across the field is interesting, but it isn't. Would be worth doctoring up in post.

I think the potential was there for a cool shot emphasizing the vast expanse of the rows of crops trailing off into the distance, but the dominating sun and shallow DOF are working against you. I would love to have seen this shot taken 15 minutes later at f/11.
