Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Got around to processing a few more shots from a bus ride through the Andes in Chile.

WW,

#1 love the different layers of colour. Image works a treat in portrait mode.

#2 having the bridge in the picture really highlights the size of the Andes. Just an amazing landscape and you have captured it well.

#3 I like how the grass plain *cuts* into the mountain, but I feel there is a bit too much mountain. Maybe this one should have been landscape...

Great shots.

Cheers

Mike

Stunning mate!

Have to go for number 2 myself. As was said the foreground gives great scale and I am a sucker for braided rivers!

Hi Steve - all sigle exposures but a little bit of layering in #2 to try and get some of the detail back in the shadowed area. Other images have levels adjustment to suit the histogram and a little bit of omph with the saturation (+10-15 RGB). USM Sharpening.

Hi Christian

Was in Chile for December-January 06 (Christmas). This bus ride may have been the best $8 ever spent?

I will definately visit Peru next time I go over. (Its on the list)
