Steem Photography Awards - August 2017 - Entry 1

in steemphotoawards •  7 years ago 

Dear friends! Welcome to my first entry for this month's #steemphotoawards by @myday!


Kinderdijk


I took this picture in Kinderdijk, Netherlands a few days ago. It is one of three landscape shots that I produced there (posted another one here). The colors and the reflection in the water are incredible in my opinion, it looks like I did some digital art. But believe me, I only brightened the whites and shadows, did some noise reduction and sharpening, oh, and used two different exposures since the bridge and windmill would have been pitch black otherwise. But the important thing, the colors and reflection are basically untouched. That place just blew me away!

Also, I am not quite sure whether it really counts as landscape photography in the sense @mydays sees it - maybe you can tell me in a comment? - but I did have to post it. I will probably enter another shot later but I guess the 2 SBD won't be wasted anyways...



Till then,
keep wandering and wondering,

Love,

mr.wonderlust

I'm sure that a flipped version of this great shot would make it even more interesting :) Two thumbs up!

Utterly beautiful photo! I see there are so many more beautiful places to visit! 😃

Very clean and pure image... Have you tried to upsidedown it, i do that sometimes. :)

seems like everyone is asking me to do that, maybe I should try...

ahah I guess it's just that it's a popular way to use reflections :)

That is a gorgeous picture great capture fellow steemian! Took a few nice shots myself last night of the beautiful sunset out in the country farm fields near my home.
