Tuesday evening Sunset
#1

Took this with canon 600d 55-250mm lens. f.16, ISO 100, 1/100 sec. 55mm focal length. I used a red filter to see what the effect would be. Having fun experimenting with the coloured filters.

It looks like an early morning or late evening shot. Well done.

Hello Jane. I think the scene and the filter effect are very pleasant.

The image looks a bit soft, although perhaps that is just my taste, and you intended it to be so. But you might consider gentle sharpening - on the file that you uploaded, try PSP's Unsharp Mask at Radius=0.5, Strength=150, Clipping=0, which improves it for me. (If you want to sharpen the original, increase the Radius to about 2).

Cheers.
Philip

Nice one Jane, and, a straight horizon, well done. I imagine the one I have, will look about the same as Philips, worth the effort, then you have a choice of two. Cheers, Ed.

To each his own!

Thank you. I love the sunsets, haven't managed to get a sunrise yet though. I live in a built up area and don't get up early enoughSmile

Thank you for the learning tips Philip. I have tried this on my copy and it is an improvement. I have so much to learn about editing, all help is greatly appreciated.

Did you post a photo Ed, as I cannot see it? I did try hard to get a straight horizon as I tend to dip to the left a lot. Maybe this is because I am left handed Smile

Did not post a pic, reading Philips post indicated, to me, that I have probably done the same in Photoshop. I am also left handed, it's supposedly a sign of the devil!! Cheers. Ed.
