Mystic Trees

Hi Guys,
Went for a drive to Mt Macedon today just cause I was bored and I hadn't been there before. The hills had alot of cloud cover which made for some interesting tree shots. Couldn't take many though as I found myself constantly wiping the camera down and trying to avoid some very large drops! :lol:
There wasn't much colour to the pic's so I played with a few cooling filters in PS to give them some atmosphere.
Cheers, Jase. :D

Number one is great!

Second all right, a bit too busy for me

Third has a potencial, maybe make trees straight woudl do?

Fourth :D

Fifth, hmm not really, somehow to sweet, maybe stands out too much from others, maybe with other fellows could be great

Good job, I like it

Regards,

K.Polak

Jase - you have captured some very moody shots with excellence - they all have their merits but #1 and #2 are just superb :D

Thanks for the comments guys! Really gives me some ideas of what to look for and avoid next time. These were kinda whim shots, and some of my other ones had the sky in them which didn't look as appealing as in real life. The last shot was up someone's driveway and I guess it would make a better pic during a sunny day using a tripod.

THese are totally cool Jase. I love the cooling filters on the first three. #1 and 2 are my favourite. Just superb. I like number 5 too.

The first three are my fav with the first one being outstanding.

You've processed them well, the mood setting is fabulous.

You have CS2, is that right?

He, he... I almost went the sepia route but it didn't really work for these images. Has worked well with yours though. Nice set you have there Informer. :D

Number 2 is definitely my favorite - made the hair stand up on the back of my neck! :shock:
I think 5&6 are good shots, but not necessarily as "mystic" as the others.
Cheers

Hi Jase,

I love these images too.
Misty, foggy sceneries I'd like to catch on photos.
There is a special feel about that.
The scenery can be quite mystical ...

Cheers,
CD

Hi Jase
great shots. The first one is stunning. I also like the sixth one. Its well framed and the glow of the light in the mist/fog draws my focus through the lushness of the "tunnel" to give the shot great depth. Well composed with good colour.
