Peaks in a Pond

Gallery: Man & NaturePosted November 17, 2016203 views5 comments
A very calm day resulted in great reflections in the tide pools so I had to stop and take a shot.  This is a very common scene to those who live in Valdez, Alaska but when the weather and light is right it can still be very striking,even for those of us who have been here forever.

Sony a6000, SE 16-70 f4 Z @ 42mm, ISO-100, f/11.0, 1/200.

Well taken!  Can't think of anything I would change.  Great details and colors.  Thanks for sharing.

Nice reflections. It looks very cold to me.

Snow capped peaks can be very inspiring but difficult to expose correctly. You have done well in this shot.  Only minor suggestion is perhaps increase the luminosity of the foreground grass a tad.

Yeah, I know where that is..... sad
That's a sweet reflection, man it's not often you see it that calm, I bet.  I like how the grasses frame it.  Perfect exposure.
