My favourite shot of the day, even though quite blurry. This is the camera’s JPG preview:

You are absolutely right! Great crop, BTW – I like wide aspect ratios, forgot to try them on this one.

I have a Spider Pro belt holster for my camera, and a weird hat to protect my head from the Sun. I should have made a selfie wearing those, with this scene as the backdrop. :smiley:

Wow! There are a thousand ways this could go. I decided on the natural colors with a contrasty look.

Simple edit on DT4.9. I used the shadow and highlights module with the shadows slider set to -50 to darken the foreground.

Another edit with a more colorful treatment courtesy of the color balance rgb module in DT.

Interesting how birds can appear from “nowhere” when zooming into an image. Happens a lot with my super-sharp Sigmas …

Blurry shot? Georges Seurat was blurry too. Great pic.
