Strong mood and appearance created by the tonal work. It's teeming with a sense of motion, wind and warmth.

eric @ 2007-09-14 08:58:46
Very cool, the 'no sharpening' is giving this one that old and nostalgic look. The sepia does the rest.

The tree, bent by the wind, but still standing !

Tech info : raw file processing in Adobe Lightroom - photoshop used for resize and save to jpeg - no sharpening

Made with the Canon EF-S 10-22mm lens I recently bought :-) --- Great thing !

Update : As Claus pointed out in his post below, the image looked a bit over-sharpened indeed. This was caused by choosing the resizing algorithm 'Bicubic Sharper' in Photoshop. This new version was resized with the 'normal' bicubic algorithm and looks a lot smoother... :-)
