[Leica] [IMG] PESO: Storm Clouds building

[Ted Grant]

Hi Peter,

Apart from the fine photographic results due to your "darkroom SKILLS?" ;-)

You used "TWO WORDS" I don't think I've seen on the screen since the advent
of "DIGITAL and all the techie crap?"

The two words I most clearly understood and understand how to do the
action........... Ready?  :-)

>>> I just dodged and burnt fairly selectively.<<<<

 "DODGED?????  & BURNT!"""       You have to love it! :-)

Two beautiful words that imply darkroom skills of the long ago past! 

thanks,
cheers,
Dr. ted :-)

Adam,

Thanks.

Yes I did, I wanted to focus more on the clouds and their structure. I
actually
reduced the contrast at the front a little, but only a little, then picked
out a
few of the houses in the foreground by lightening them. There are actually
quite
a lot of them and I felt that they would detract from the focus of the
image; I
didn't want to detract from the clouds and the pool of light in the mid
right.
But I did want the buildings in for a sense of scale.

It is all there in the RAW image though. I just dodged and burnt fairly
selectively.

Peter
