Finding the Way Photo

Photographer’s Note

Dear Friends...if ever you feel lost or in trouble...put on your boots...catch a pipe...light your fire...walk the fairway...and LOOK UP...THE ANSWER TO FIND THE WAY is THERE...

Hope you enjoy,
Saludos from Chile,
Robert

PS Taken in Chicureo located some 25 Km north of the capital of Chile, Santiago.

PS2 I have included in the WS an alternative view...as you might imagine with a sunset like this...my camera did not stop "Clicking"...! Hope you enjoy as well.

Hola Robert,
Otra linda captura tuya.
El cielo es increíble y me impresiona que has podido mantener los colores del suelo también.
Tienes mas detalles de la foto, me interesa el tiempo del 'Shutter'?

Hi Robert, Beautiful photo!
Very intense colours, and a lovely silhouette. Very dynamic sky. Nice saturation, not too much noise, nice.
My only concern is this tree on the right..does it grow in that angled? Else there is much lens distortion I think..

This is an impressive picture. Look like we can touch the clouds. The colours are so beautiful in particular the blue sky behind the sunset light of the clouds. I have not seen this Chile when I was there last year!!! Very well done.

Very inspired shot. I spent lots of time looking up, I love the clouds playing in th sky giving us such a great 3-diemsional feeling of empty space. Your pictures act the same way. Thank!

Hi Robert,

Fantastic picture.
It looks like an oil painting.
Great colors and POV.

Congratulations & TFS,

feather (49858) 2006-12-10 3:57

You certainly know where to find those wonderful skies. As usual the colours are stunning and the foreground light on golfcourse very pleasant. I love all the diagonal lines of the clouds pointing to the centre; you couldn't have arranged them better yourself.

Hi Robert,
I have always felt, its the clouds and not the sun which is the most important ingredient of a successful sunset shot. Your gorgeous picture once again emphasises my belief. Thanks for sharing!

Flavia (10202) 2006-12-11 18:04

Ola Roberto,

A sensacao de movimento das nuvens e o efieto tridimentsionale e realmente impressionante nesta foto. As arvores que tombam um pouco p o centro parecem estar sendo arrastadas por este turbilhao de nuvens. Muitissimo bem executada!

Abracos,

Flavia

Loic_bzh (7025) 2006-12-12 4:51

Hi Robert,

what a dramatic sky there... Amazing colors (probably a little bit "over saturated")...

Congrats,

Loïc

Lovely view. Great colours. I don`t like only the red clouds - they are little strange ;).

Hi Robert. Great sunset, great golf course. Well composed and well presented. Thanks for sharing.

That is an awesome sky. Well done on the composition and rich colours. Were the colours processed in any way, i.e. HDR?

Ann75 (0) 2006-12-16 22:56

Hello Robert,

Stunning view with excellent colours and clouds. The lighting is excellent! Great composition and so beautifully captured...I have no other words for it! Fantastic work, Robert!

In this one, beside of the striking colour and light setting I like the soft look of the clouded sky and landscape. Another most impressive sunset Robert.

bostankorkulugu (33514) 2006-12-19 23:47

i just love your skies robert... another magical shot with a dreamy sky... superb colours... congrats...

cdmonson (2751) 2006-12-22 14:41

Hi Robert:

Great shot once again. I actually believe I like the workshop shot better, but I can't say anything bad about this one either. On this one I love that you caught part of the sand trap--it adds some texture and depth to the picture. Thanks for sharing.

Clark

superpau (1460) 2006-12-23 0:55

Hola Robert!
me encanta el cielo, tiene un toque de acuarelas que lo hace casi irreal!
Fabuloso :D

Aprovecho para desearte una Feliz Navidad!
Muy contenta de haber encontrado tu amistad :D

Besos!
Paula.

pablominto (40456) 2006-12-24 2:28

pady (4800) 2006-12-31 4:11

Hello Robert
I think I missed this one. OK, This is a wonderful sky and colors are great. Good composed as you left a large place for the sky.
I wish you a happy new year.
Pierre-André

pudipie (77) 2007-01-06 14:35

It is going to be a long time before I take another sunset, but it way past time you posted some more. That looks like one awfully windy course going by the tree angles, we have a few leaners but that poor tree must have been getting blown over all its life.
Another magnificent sunset and thank you very much, like I said ,more please.
Diane

prezntime (3945) 2007-01-15 6:30

Hello Robert.
For some reason I missed this shot. Incredible colors again friend. The angle is nice and your lens (what is it) lends a nice depth to the shot. I see you spend alot of time golfing...good for these wonderful shots of the sky.
Regards,
Chris.

:) later.

coco (27774) 2007-01-18 16:56

Hi Robert.

I would say: a wonderful picture. But may be the postprocessing is too heavy. At least for me.
Beautiful... but unreal.

Anyway, nice work and thanks for share.

cunejo200 (7157) 2007-01-19 16:42

Hi Robert,
I can't believe I miss this. Wonderful comp featuring the beautiful clouds with its glorious sunset colors. Terrific. Regards. Danilo

lotis (132) 2007-01-25 14:21

Hi Robert,
The sky is very nice. The view is also peaceful and it's not hard to believe that that scenery helps steer trouble away.
However, it seems as though much detail has been lost in the foreground, especially in the trees and the grass. I wonder if it's perhaps because you used a long exposure time and it was windy?...
Fine shot nonetheless.
Did you shoot a good game?!

Cheers,
Louis

cbrman (18796) 2007-01-27 6:44

Hello Robert,

Je trouve cette image très spectaculaire ! Les couleurs sopnt tout simplement fabuleuses et l'effet de perspective est vraiment impressionnant !

Hello Robert,
This is another wonderful scenery. Those colors are stunning and so are this mood and your great notes. I like the wide angle effect. This picture looks like a painting. Well done and TFS,

happypoppeye (4060) 2007-06-24 1:24

Great colors...

I'm not really into golfing ( I think I see a sandtrap on the right) and there is alot of distortion but that's not what the photo is about. Just a great photo with a great sky. Great note also.

John

vero07 (1747) 2007-06-25 15:55

Hi Robert,
That's a perfect shot! It seems a painting. I like very much this sky. I was wondering if you have use some kind of programm to improve it.
Great work!

Signal-Womb (11677) 2007-07-01 8:40

Hi Robert, you have a great collection of awesome saturated skies in your gallery. This one is particularly striking because of formations and tone. Very nice work.

Hi Robert,
After so many critiques, one wonders what to write! Does our mother Earth really have such a dramatic views in that part of the globe? No one can come back from such a place without fully exhausting his/her stock of films / memory cards!

Wonderful sun set, Robert. No part of the picture, in spite of the fact, you were shooting against contra light, is over or underexposed. Well done. Rgds, Michael
