Thursday's Task - 10/12/2020

[Douglas Sherman]

This is a variation on a task we had a while ago. This time I want you to show a typical image of a location and then show different perspectives of that location in your attempts to be creative.

Mine are from The Great Bend of the Colorado River near Page, AZ I have posted some of these previously as individual images. So don't let the fact that you have posted some of them before dissuade you from posting them here.

Here is the typical set-up location.

Here are some other set-ups.

 

[Kyle Jones]

I don't have my full library with me, but here are some from the Vestrahorn in southeast Iceland...

1) The full view of the Vestrahown with reflection that I was after...

2) Some nice light zooming into the left side of the formation

3) Exploring the coast in the other direction...

4) My favorite image, also looking in the other direction

 

[Dean]

Great idea .. Douglas very interesting alternative perspectives they are all really great Comps.

Kyle.. that last image is pretty awesome .. beautiful!

I will use Multnomah Falls in the Columbia River Gorge for this.

The classic view:

The upper part of the falls:

Interesting topic Doug and everyone's up for the challenge. Here is my offering from another iconic location.

 

[Bob]

Ok Doug,
Here is three versions of a Buffalo Soldier reenactment.

Very cool idea Doug, and I like your variations of the normal view.

B&W 1st

Taken on Ektar when the rainbow appeared

Last one, lighting changed & the rainbow was more intense.

 

[Jim Sanderson]

Creative perspective....hmm. Here's one from last month's trip to the eastern side of the Sierras. The first is more or less the original raw file. The second is the different perspective...........

 

[Jim Dockery]

That is some amazing processing Jim S! Good example of zooming with the extra pixels your Sony A7 IV affords.

A few takes on my favorite little backyard mountain.

Mt. Pilchuck, taken near my house in Lake Stevens

Sunset about half way up the trail looking back west to Lake Stevens, the closer golden glimmer, beyond is the Puget Sound and the distant Olympic range.

Sunset from the summit looking toward Everett, note the ships docked at the navy base. Lake Stevens at the bottom. My house is close to my signature.

Now for a winter/summer contrast of the summit lookout shelter. Also the ground/aerial view. Both shots are looking east.

In winter we can ski right up, but have to dig through ice to open the door.

Drone view in summer.

Glacier Pk. in background

Thanks Jim. Nothing like PS perspective warp to give the mountains a little lift.

Late to the party (as usual -- someday I'll have a house that I'm all settled into.......)
Mesa Arch, as if it needed introduction.
conventional winter view

A more conventional view

And my favorite perspective, from a little slot to the right, straddling a block below the rim. Unfortunately, not a wise place to be when it's wet or snowy. And by now, maybe the block I sat on is gone? But one can always lie upside down with a partner holding onto ones ankles.........

 

[Jim Dockery]

I can't see your pictures Monika.

 

[MonikaC]

I can't see your pictures Monika.

Try again -- they come up when I'm looking now. But I'll attach to this reply just in case. Wouldn't want you missing out....
