Hello All!
This shot was taken about three weeks ago at the Conwy RSPB (Royal Society for the Protection of Birds) site that we became members of, and it was on quite a warm winters day - before all the snow and nasty weather arrived.
The shot looks out onto the tidal River Conway, at low tide, with the Snowdonia mountain range marching off into the distance, some of which are snow capped.
This is a composite of three different exposures made from the same RAW file to be able to show the sky definition along with the foreground detail at the same time. A slight colour and saturation boost were also used as well as dodge and burn.
Thanks for looking and any comments or critique are, as always, more than welcomed and valued!

Simply stunning Carl! This is breath-takingly beautiful. The exposures are brilliant as are the textures of the river bed where the fading sunlight is catching every detail. You have captured the essence of the atmosphere even more beautifully than I remember with a superb composition and fantastic post-editing to bring out a photograph wothy of any gallery wall! This is fantastic in my book!! Hugs Chrissy xox
