Yes, another PG shot and another without water. This was a little later on from my previous [non HDR] Padley shot so the mist was all but gone ... wish we'd got there a little earlier.
The colours and the light this day were just fabulous, but therein lies the problem with metering, a nightmare for any tog. There are certain time when a single shot just can't capture the full tonal range ... thanks God for HDR I say, it does have its place ![]()
Thanks for looking in,
Paul
EDIT: Just uploaded the 'middle' shot in the HDR range for comparison.

Not the easiest part of PG to capture well but I like this comp and of course the Autumn colours.

Smart as a carrot this is, if this is HDR its subtle Paul.

Obviously a good day on Saturday Paul - lovely antural looking shot
compositionally superb Paul and the HDR treatment is about a subtle and realistic as any I've seen.
I think the reason why it looks so true to reality is that you have resisted the temptation to reveal too much detail in the main tree trunk.

What a stunning Woodland shot Paul, amazing colour, great composition. Looks excellent.
Scott
Fab colours, the HDR has certainly worked a treat with this one.
Simon
Brilliant Paul...hdr definately made an improvement on the single exposure.

Ta too Keith, tried to tone down the HDR and use it more as a tool rather than the effect, glad you concur
Paul
Exactly what I was thinking, you are getting very, very good at these Paul, nice one.
Dave
lovely stuff paul, not an easy place to photograph but this is excellent
I get real tired of HDR Paul. But, when it is done this well and lets be right with such a mighty fine image compositionally in the first place it makes me realise the use it has. This mate is a real corker. Big Click!

Yes but only in the right hands Paul, another fine example here well done.

The carpet of leaves is so thick, and what glorious light is moving across the scene, warm and inviting.
Grand image Paul, full of colour and good tones. Looks like you have a good grasp of hdr, this dosn't have the "look" of hdr thenkfully.
All the very best
Dougie
