Description Back to landscape photography for a while I guess. I'm going to start with a quite edited photo this time. Well it's not a photo manipulation but I changed the colors. I didn't like the original colors for they didn't represent the mood I wanted. I don't know what you think about this but my intention has never been to capture the reality as it is as far as my landscape photos are concerned. I'd rather create art and like to show the scene as I would like it to be. Some might think that this is not real photography and doesn't show how good photographer you are. And I agree partly. But I still don't see the reason why I shouldn't change the color like this. I mean I have thought out the composition, depth of field, shutter time and all I did was change the color because no matter how long I had waited there I wouldn't have seen colors like this.

I also added some vignetting to make the existing vignetting look better. This is taken with 12mm focal length and even though I bought the bigger cokin P-Series filters I still get some vignetting at that focal length.

No other editing done.

All the tech.specs can be seen on the exif info on the right.

Now you know how this photo is made. It's up to you whether you like it or not.

Art is what comes out at the end. We manipulate when we crop (which I often do), adjust contrast, brightness etc. Why should adjusting the colour be different?

My first impression was one of serenity, and I have made it a favourite for that reason. Lovely!

I like it. Changing colors is no manipulation but the process of creating art.
