Re: PESO-Clementine Rainbow
Hello Rob, You bring up a good point. I was reading a thread on HDR recently and that was one of the issues brought up - basically that the compression of the dynamic range of an HDR image causes it to look unnatural, and for some people that causes them to reject or dislike it. Once could argue that exposure that causes you to misinterpret the setting could have the same effect. -- Bruce Tuesday, May 18, 2010, 1:01:31 AM, you wrote: RS> On 18/05/2010, Bruce Dayton wrote: >> I guess it begs the question...Does it really matter whether it was a >> daytime or nighttime shot?

Re: PESO - Clementine Rainbow Round 2
I think if it were my image I'd combine "Round 2" with the original as a layer and apply a layer mask to confine the lightened area to the water behind the dam and the one foreground tree on the lower right, leaving the rest of the image as original. The darkness of the rocks and the shadowed face makes the rainbow pop out for me, but the lighter water works in the impoundment area. From: Jack Davis I think the original is more dramatic and concentrates the viewer's attention on the falls.

Lower Yosemite Falls produces them. Also Cumberland Falls State Resort in Kentucky, Luna Island at Niagara Falls State Park and Waimea on Hawaii's Big Island. Info on-line says the color doesn't show up to the naked eye. The color is too faint to activate the color cones so it just appears as a white bow, but long exposures will reveal the colors. No reason why mist from that spillway couldn't produce one if the alignment was right. According to Wikipedia, Durham, North Carolina is another "Famous natural moonbow location". I grew up there and can't for the life of me figure out where in Durham it would be? Google doesn't help. Every hit that refers to Durham being a location to observe moonbows refers back to the Wikipedia article sooner or later. I'll have to look around a bit next time I head over there. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

The original is more dramatic, the revisit is probably closer to

Bruce, I chose not to comment about the dark surface of the lake, in favor of allowing it to simply provide contrast to the dam overflow.

I just recalibrated my monitor and it was out, but even so it still apears pretty dark, almost like a night scene, the white water component of the exposure is spot on though.

Re: PESO-Clementine Rainbow
Well, unfortunately, since I replace a machine in the past year put me on to Vista and then Windows 7. My calibration system was the original Colorvision Spyder - and it was discontinued and is not supported on Vista or Win7. So in short, I am running by eye calibration right now. Calibration is on my list but there are several things ahead of it in priority. I have viewed the image on about 5 different systems/monitors and have not noticed it to be darker than I intended. So far no one else has commented on this being dark (of course, not that large of a group have commented). Perhaps others will chime in. -- Best regards, Bruce Sunday, May 16, 2010, 6:51:59 PM, you wrote: RS> On 16/05/2010, Bruce Dayton wrote: >> Lake Clementine just above the city of Auburn California.

Re: PESO-Clementine Rainbow
I suppose there'll be people liking it as it but for me it looks like a candidate for a composite of a properly expose water fall and one with the rest exposed so as to be able to take in the surrounding details.

Nicely composed, Bruce! Like the shutter speed chosen. Sometime in the next couple weeks, am planning a short trip to Yosemite in anticipation of what should be some spectacular water falls.
