Serenity
by Bill Caldwell
The sun illuminates thin wispy clouds as it sets over Pocomoonshine Lake in Downeast Maine on a calm windless evening. Photo manipulated to eliminate the red channel--It feels more peaceful to me without the reds. 4 (vert) image pan. Canon 5DII, EF17-40 @ 17mm, 1/4sec f11, ISO 200.

8 commentsVery creative, and I think successful choice, in removing the red channel. I agree with Marc that it gives this a kind of Northern Lights look. I also very much like the wide angle and wide presentation. the curvature of the foreground rocks also give this a slight fish-eye look to it - at least at the bottom.
A little torn about this as being posted in Landscape. I'll leave it here as we try and be a bit easy going.... but when a member actually calls out "photo manipulated to...." kinda makes me think this should be in Photo Art. No biggie, just thought I would put that out there for next time.
And regardless, the image is a great success and I like this very much. Well done.
