About It's an artificial lake--a reservoir and I took this standing on the dam. The weather was overcast, and the blues look rather strange to me. Why is the sky pastel and the reflections in the water so dark?

Mary, some people sneer at Japanese tidiness and call it the "manicured" look but I find it welcome. Our cities are still not disfigured by grafitti everywhere you look... if you can believe that! It is beginning to appear here and there, though.

Beats me. Not easy to walk on thos carefully arranged cobble stones, pfff I feel my feet aching. Nice shot and it all looks very artificial and relatively new.

Thanks, Cessy. I tried to cope using PaintShop Pro (the poor man's PhotoShop) but there are limits... I guess the best thing to do is to go back when the weather is nicer! The scene does suiit the horizontal panorama format. I have one or two taken earlier in the year using an old panorama camera and they are fine...

Hi Roger,
I don't know if I can answer the question :)
Maybe there are different zone/contrast here, and if you metered to the mid tone (maybe to the land there) resulting the sky more brighter but the land and water is perfect.
In different contrast situation, sometimes I do partial metering, I try to find a place which has to be exposed right. Maybe to the sky. If you want to have details on the sky. and slightly compensate so as the other parts not to dark.... And if it's still too dark, I will increase the level on the dark part with PS
I don't know if this answer the question :)

Anyway, I like the lake part and the land there. Horizontal format might work well also here.

How nice to have a comment from you again, Chris. I think you must mean a panorama I took earlier in the year of the same spot. It is an ideal place for panoramas... very "horizontal" if you know what I mean.

I'm not sure I can answer your questions, Roger, but the scene is one I think I may have seen before from a slightly different angle, and it's one that I like very much.
Best regards, Chris
