A few snaps from a recent business trip to Alaska. linked from FB, so apologies in advance for poor quality.

My transport to Deadhorse. There really is nothing as far as the eye can see behind the plane - flat and featureless for miles!


Friendly local biker with a passing resemblance to Tom Jones wink


Sunrise from my hotel window in Anchorage.


The highest point in the US (Mount McKinley), taken through a very grubby aircraft window.


View from the office window in Anchorage with some weird colours due to bronze effect windows.


Low flying plane coming into land over a main road. Photo quickly taken from a moving car. Prize for anyone that spots a small car on the roads wink

Spent a while editing this one yesterday, getting the colours right, and the white balance sorted too, the lighting at the time of taking the photo was awful, the positioning of the car, cramped car park was terrible too, but I tried my best.


Also, some incredible work over the past couple of pages lately!!

Sorry, but I've seen much better from you i'm sure. The selection around the car is quite rough. Around the mirror, spoiler and under the car are still sharp while you've blurred the area around it. And the fact that the car is in focus while objects of equal distance away from the camera are blurred makes it look like you've just pasted the car into a low quality picture.
It also looks like you've used too much "fill light" if you've processed this from a raw file. Thus giving the car a mild HDR effect.

All taken on board, I just can't quite get this shot looking right.

Personally still find the post blur to be distracting - it's in contrast to the very sharp foreground.

I agree. I'd forget about the false depth of field. It can be tricky to get 100% and it looks odd if you don't manage.
If you want to make the car stand out more then I'd suggest desaturating the background slightly.

I'm not entirely sure why, but that pic doesn't really do it for me.
I think what's bugging my eyes is the lack of symmetry with the door/opening, and the car being off centre too.

I hope you don't mind me editing it to show you what I mean.

Lovely shot, bit of a shame with the blue bar in the background cutting across the bird, but obviously this sort of thing cant be helped with wildlife most of the time!

A rare land(sea)scape from me, c&c very welcome!
