A Picturesque Setting for Daisies Along the Stehekin River (Lake Chelan National Recreation Area)
Yes, one of those picturesque views that anyone immediately recognizes whether walking, riding, or I guess even driving. I went back and forth in my mind trying to decide how to compose and meter this image. In the end, I decided to back up because I knew I'd want to have more of this setting in focus. I could then zoom in with the focal length. The daisies though would be the primary focus. Throughout this trip, I attempted more and more to use Manual mode to meter images as I found working the right exposure easier using the camera's settings. I later used some CEP filters (Low Key, Polarization and Graduated Neutral Density) in post-production with Capture NX2 which seemed to best bring out this look even with the late afternoon sunlight.
