Nature Brims With Its Festival of Delights to Residents, and Even Visitors (Denali State Park)
This was an image captured looking mostly to the east across the calm, placid waters of Byers Lake with a forest and mountain ridgelines off in the distance. My thinking in angling my Nikon SLR camera slightly downward were a few things. One was to capture that sweeping view across the reflections of the lake waters. Another was to capture the nearby rocks and submerged plant-life present in the lake. While a polarizer could have minimized that, I felt it was a complement to this setting. Yes, the eyes would naturally be drawn to the majestic peaks and forest off in the distance, but if one looked carefully, one could see the details of life and in the image nearby.
I did some initial post-processing work making adjustments to contrast, brightness and saturation while playing around as I learned how to work with DxO PhotoLab 3 that I’d recently purchased after moving away from Capture NX2.
