MarcBr Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Hey folks, another photo manipulation because of a monsun like weather on the Hai-Van-Pass in Vietnam. The sun looks a bit fake, it is just a white half ellipse with gaussian blur - do you have any recommendations for a better processing?

carl123 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 I like that. If I had done it I probably would have forgot to add that island shadow on the water. A nice touch to add to the realism You also inspired me to turn "night" into day. If just to get a little more detail from the mountains in the rear MarcBr 1 Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum.

If just to get a little more detail from the mountains in the rear What did you do to get more detail in the washed out mountains in your edit? By the way, those birds / seagulls are a nice detail, will consider it for a future edit of another seascape. One thing that jumped into my eyes: your horizon & clouds are positioned too low (check the mountain layer behind the mountains). Cheers and thanks for some inspiration Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl123 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Yes, I noticed the horizon was wrong when I was placing the new sky layer but I got distracted by the plain blue sky and went looking for some birds and stuff to break it up a bit and forgot to come back to correct the horizon. The details in the washed out mountains is just a composite from another image. Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum.

John Rostron Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 @carl123, I would agree that the Cranes (the birds) are a nice touch. Not sure about the contrails though.

Indeed, if this was a real photograph, someone would probably be on a forum somewhere asking how to get rid of them. Personally I just thought that sky was too perfect/plain and I did not want to do my usual thing of just adding some clouds to it.
