Roel: What a cool concept very nicely executed. I've seen many images of lunar eclipses but can't recall a solar sequence. Very nicely done.>=))>

Very well captured. I would perhaps try for more definition in the left among the foliage which appears like a mass of dark tones at the moment.

I'd say this came out great, Roel. Very well planned and executed. The starburst of sun and the details in the snow add well to the story here.

You certainly had better skies than us in the UK Roel. I like the finished product here, I would try lightening up the shadow areas though as Kah Kit has suggested.
I went the other route and opted for a long lens due to the cloud in the UK.
Cheers, Gary.

Well done, technically, and very interesting and instructive. Regarding colors, there seems a cast (slight magenta) on the snow, and uneven brightness across the sky (polarizer effect?) but that's not the point here for me.

I love what you did with the sunburst followed by the trail of the eclipse! I agree about the magenta, otherwise the color looks pretty good.

How fun! I like how this tells a story starting with the bright sunstar.

What a great idea! Combining the bright sun-burst with the eclipse sequence tells the story well. I think the stark, contrast and slightly dark exposure is a perfect match to convey the idea of the darkness created by the eclipse.

The beauty and genius of a work of art may be reconceived, though its first material expression be destroyed; a vanished harmony may yet again inspire the composer; but when the last individual of a race of living beings breathes no more, another heaven and another earth must pass before such a one can be again. William Beebe, 1906 |

Very unique, Roel. I like the image as posted but a bit more dynamic foreground would have put it over the top.

This was really well executed and I can imagine it was no easy task. I agree that maybe a better foreground would have helped, but it still very good as is.
