Artist's Comments

Sougia on the south-west coast of Crete, Greece. Same day as [link] A lonesome tree on mountain ridge or top taken below from the beach.
Was a little bit unsure of which category to put this one in, so if you think it fits better in another category, please tell me!

Post-processing:
Adjusted the levels a bit. Added a black and white layer set to multiply on 100% opacity, a b&w layer set to overlay on 50% opacity. Added two b&w layer set to multiply on the part of the sky not covered by clouds. And added a normal black&white layer with a greenbluish tint.

Stunning, oh to live in a area where hills are easily accessible lol. I love the feelings your post processing adds to your photos

To me, a lonely tree on a hill is the holy grail of landscape photography. I have yet to find a good one though. There's always something that breaks up the shot =(

This is awesome though!

Oh, and I'd put it in landscapes. I don't really like the darkroom category, cause what shot isn't put through the "digital darkroom" anyway?

Amazing!

This reminds me of the movie 300. Especially how it was taken in Greece.

I've always been looking for a shot like this myself, but I've never found it before now (actually there was a lot of lonely trees on hills and mountain tops in Crete, I felt a little bit cheated in a way, I've been looking for it for so long and then I find "many" during one trip...)
Thank you, and thank you for the fav :hug:

Thank you :aww:
But I haven't seen the movie 300 so I have no idea of what you're talking about =p

300 is about the 300 spartans in a battle against Xerxes troops.

It's really exciting.
