Beautiful image, especially for the excellent, bright, powerful blue of the sky and water.
I like this kind of landscapes, they're very fasinating to my eyes.
And autumn colours in the image are really good, with a nice mixture of green... brown.. yellow.

gary91 (15348) 2006-10-26 19:32

Hello Lukasz,
Beautiful shot,I especially appreciate the foreground and the usage of wied angle. Maybe due to polarizer + grey filter you have a little bit too much saturation but the impression with these marvelous colors and autumn tones is overall excellent.
This is a great image !
Best regards. Christian

Cormac (26565) 2006-10-26 20:23

Simple composition, but the feeling of this is huge - very spacious and wide open, almost like being there. The colour is very intense too, which is a big part of the attraction with this shot. Beautiful!

Hello Lukasz
A very attractive composition with well saturated colors.
I like the lake in the foreground as a good introduction to the multicolored grasses leading to the mountains and the polarised clouds.
Are you satisfied of your 10-22 lens as I am considering buying one?Thanks
Charles

chanjits (4460) 2006-10-26 21:13

Marvelous colorful landscape the blue is so fantastic and attractive in contrast to hey thanks for sharing.

eugeneahn (298) 2006-10-26 21:56

Really intense color and detail! You're very skilled at creating a sumptuous image.

pboehringer (770) 2006-10-26 23:32

Looking at you shot I can understand your wet (or soaked) boots. However, I wouldn't mind to have wet boots standing there. What a wonderful open space with wonderful natural elements.
TFS, Peter

zenskat (656) 2006-10-27 0:03

Wow,
i particularly like your crop on this to the square(ish) format. The foreground has interest, and stunning blue reflection while you can still see into the water for some extra detail, the midground is very vibrant, leading us nicely back to the distance with some lovely low lying clouds over this otherwise not so interesting hill(nicely off centre), and the blue of the sky is sensational, punchy, contrasted beautifully with the white of the clouds and the orangegreen midground, it all holds together perfectly. Lovely landscape, jez

dzain (585) 2006-10-27 1:36

Great colors and sharpness!
I love this kind of landscape photographing.

But what is the effect of a cokin grey 121 exactly? I have a question about that kind of filters in the forum and hope someone has the time to answer it.

And where is the rest of your exif, like aperture and shuttertime?

Graal (103040) 2006-10-27 2:20

Czesc,
piekny krajobraz, fajny kadr. Uzyles szarej polowki a wyglada jak z polarem. Lubie kadry zblizone do kwadratu. Dobra robota.

Very beautiful composition. So sharp and so soft at the same time. Colours are as beautiful as the ones in all your most recent irish pictures. You have been very inspried then. Congratulations.

sebcz (2345) 2006-10-27 6:25

Hej Lukasz!
Bardzo ladne. Stawik pod nogami (no, kaluza), duzo fajnych koorow po drodze i gora w mgle. Wszystko ladnie gra ze soba.

Hello Lukasz,
Nice colored composition, I like the foreground lake with its color contrasting well the the golden grass

humanist (695) 2006-10-27 8:05

Great colour depth and perspective. I like the sense of mystery that the low cloud gives... I fin d myself straining to try and imagine the shape of the mountain behind it.

a_i_ren (1315) 2006-10-27 10:27

Hi, Lukasz,
Awesome! Fantastic colors & textures, excellent framing, beautiful water surface. Very successfully done PP. Bravo!

Ale niesamowity widok, niebo wyglada przepieknie odbite w wodzie tylko dodaje zdjeciu uroku podoba mi sie drugi plan ze znowu rewelacyjnymi chmurami, slicznie wyglada jesien w Irlandii. Bardzo urzekajaca fotografia.

Un paysage fabuleux, Lukasz, comme on peut en r黐er. On sent que m'Irlande est un paradis pour le photographe. Ta photo est superbe avec un ciel extraordinaire qui se refl鑼e dans l'eau du premier plan. Un paysage sauvage comme j'aime !

Witaj Luasz,
You captured wonderful detail and color here from the reflecions of the wetlands pond to mist over the mountains. Well done.

You find a good combination between the two filters and I like how blue is strong.
Nice composition of this land

Hello Lukasz:

Powerful color. Very well composed with the inclusion of water, cloud, hills, and blue sky. I love it. Good work. Sothy

bibiweb (8) 2006-10-31 23:31

Hi Lukasz,
I've nerver been to Ireland, but seeing your photos I feel like doscovering this place one day. I like the use of the wide-angle here which adds to the impression of immensity. The colours are beautiful and your compo with this small pond in the foreground is well done. I'm not really a big fan of square-format photos, but after all, why not?
have a nice day.
Brigitte

Elaine_Blath (8471) 2006-11-01 13:21

Hi Lukasz,

Juz na miniaturce bylo widac, ze to Connemara. Sliczne kolory i naprawde piekne zdjecie. Ale Ci fajnie, ze mozesz sobie Connemare focić jesienia. Pozdrawiam, Marta

Morgwathien (596) 2007-05-09 15:43

Czesc,
Po prostu piekne zdjecie. Wszystko w nim jest perfekcyjnie zgrane. Fantastyczna fotka z basniowego miejsca, o ktorym zazwyczaj czyta sie w ksiazkach. Gratulacje!
Pzdr,
Basia

andrewstaszok (114) 2008-02-03 3:36

kolejny piekny obrazek, zastanawiam sie czy masz uklad z Panem Bogiem i zamawiasz u Niego pogode wtedy kiedy wybierasz sie w plener ;)

Anamcara (124) 2008-06-14 5:14

"i'm still feeling this impressive landacapes..." Me too. This will be due to the fact that I stay in Ireland two weeks before, and on the other hand it is the "style" of your creations. In that case I like the wideness and intensive colors of your photo and hate my horrible English ;o)... ein traumhaft sches Foto. Best regards, Marina
