Lake Ohau

Looking out to the NE across Lake Ohau, NZ at dusk a few weeks ago. Uninspiring light but you have to work with what you have.

Few of my landscapes have a particular subject and I don't intentionally do or present "sets" of images. For me its often about the vista, the place or view, and thinking at the time how lucky I am to be in this spot, even if it is raining, blowing a gale and cold as!

C&C welcome as always.

5Ds + 16-35mm f4 L @ mostly 16mm with a 6 stop ND. 90% of the PP is in ACR with some straightening, sharpening, cropping in PS.

Image number one for me. I think the light is great in my humble opinion.
Cheers Ole

Agree with Ole on image No1. Was it a breezy morning - there seems to be a little "motion" in the foreground grasses.......

Thanks Len. A cold, wet and windy sunset so little I could do re the grass.

This is a fantastic breakdown of technique—thanks for sharing! Really helps clarify some of the lighting confusion I had. Going to experiment with this on my next shoot and see the difference it makes. Appreciate the detailed explanation. Balancing a part-time job with studies is tough, so I turned to a trusted college paper writing service. The team at https://academized.com/college-paper-writing-service provided excellent assistance, making it easier for me to manage both, and Academized exceeded my expectations.

Lovely scene and some nice shots, I particularly like no4 with the cloud seeming to come from the mountain.
