chris, thanks for the pointer. i'll give it a read prior to my next attempt. btw, i do usually shoot 3 frames when i think i'll need it. when i shot this it was so early and relatively dark that i didn't think i'd need multiples. live and learn ;^) i did start shooting multiples later in the day as the light got brighter.
thanks again,
tom

Sorry, here's the link to the instruction on adjustment layers -

Hi Tom - the method seems kind of complicated, but it's really easy. PS6 and newer has adjustment layers - it's the little half-black half-white circle at the bottom of the layers palette. Here's a link to a forum post a made w/ all the instructions and screen caps. It really opens up some pretty quick fixes to exposure problems that were too hard on site.
But if you really want some incredible low-light landscape shots - I always take at least 3 exposures every time I lock up the head on my tripod, so later on I combine them in PS & get natural exposures for the light and dark parts of the image, without any manipulating the levels or curves = way less noise and truer colors. Write me at huntergraphics@verizon.net for more on the multiple exposures - it's worth trying!!

Great shot! Good job pulling the white of the salt up from such low light. Both the top and bottom attract the eye...too bad about the boot print though. Really awesome.

I know what we learn in ps and know now we can go back and make our images better. I like the CS in raw at 16 bit. Image looks fine like the white and well the sky is great. Excellent composiiton.

O'man I got dizzy bouncing back and forth from this image and the other....
I do like what you have done here, In most shots I take where I add a long stretch in front of my background it just don't work.
The detail and shadows in the snow adds much to this image and then what a beautiful bg with awesome colors.
Well done Tom.

hugo, sounds like you're up for a pretty cool experience. can i assume we'll be seeing lots of pictures when you return? btw, glad your internet connection worked ;^) have a good time....
take care,
tom
ps - thanks for all your help on this one. esp. that frame from hell ;^) but i got the concept down and the next one should work much better ;^)

chris, thanks! glad you like it. and you're right, i was trying not overdo it and create too much contrast between the sky and the salt. looking at your changes, i'd have to say i could've gone a bit further in brightening the salt. i like what you did to it. for my edification, what exactly did you do?
take care,
tom

Hi Tom, what is there left to say...:) I think you did great here, and it even shows in the rating, heheheheh.
As this message proves, I do have Internet access in China, but I'm working round the clock. We're located north of HK in a compound / enclosure of internationally operating production plants. Bloody huge and totally without atmosphere. The entire workforce is works, lives, eats, breathes and sleep at this facility. Haven't seen anything like this before. No wonder Chinese economy is booming.
Having a ball, though....:)
Very well done, and thanks for your help in keeping me online...:)
Cheers from China,
H.

Very nice shot, has a real unique feeling - the bright colored sky against the pure white of the foreground. Good framing and a really unique landscape shot.
I suppose that if you're going to PS pics, you could have gone a little bit farther here, but regardless - well captured scene.
If this came through my department for publication in a magazine, my tonal adjustments would be as follows,
Cheers,
Chris

Tom, this is 100% better. There is detail in the mtn range, whereas before, it was muddy. The foreground is just great, a much more subtle blue. The depth of field is more apparent. A significant improvement on an already spectacular composition.

not only is the sunset great but your foreground is also equally suportive and without detracting from the overall power of your image.
Great PS work help or not!
