From the couple of responses thus far, it seems that the very dark foregrounds look un-natural to you guys. I love those dramatic darks. I'll look at them again, but there are some well lit ones to be posted next (not from that cloudy, shadowed scene). Bron shot a bunch of nice stuff, but she's yet to edit and indicate which she'd like me to post for her. I just stole a few featuring this Leica photographer. Cheers Geoff -----Original Message----- Subject: Re: [Leica] IMG: Cradle Mountain Tasmania Hi Geoff, I love your photos, especially 1 and 2. I had to rationalize the dark foreground in 3 and 4. Bron's photos are very good. Well done to both of you.
