I like this version better, Greg. I think it's better balanced. Regardless of how you got it, it's marvelous.
Thank you for your comment.
Best regards,
Rafi

Wow really appreciate all this advice. I had been told to photograph landscapes with a small app and a low iso to create depth and colour as you mentioned but i do tend to get results that aren't that sharp at times. I guess I should start with the simple rules of above and then play around with slightly differing settings. I find some times that I think I have a good shot when viewing it on the 1.5 screen on the back of the camera only to be dissappointed when I get home. I aslo think it might be time to upgrade my camera for one with better settings as the smallest app I have is only F 8. Any way I appreciate all your input - gives me alot to think about.
Cheers Greg

Hi Greg, very nice scene as the perspective is very appealing. I read Jinggoys comment and advice and do agree on most. I do however think landscapes should be shot in Manual mode to give you control over both app and shutter, as well as Iso and white balance, using a tripod is your prefrence and settings should be adjusting accordingly, Of course handheld a faster shutter speed and wider apperature will be needed and possibly a higher ISO to keep the shutter speed high enough not to blur, white balance is personal prefrence, but pre programed as stated to the cloudy setting should work fine, the pro 1 is capable of all this. If using a tripod your settings are more flexable as a slower shutter speed can be used as well as a stopped down app to give you sharp detail and nice DOF, ISO can also be kept at 50 to prevent any noise...
There are many ways to do the same thing here, and most of you landscaped I have viewed are outstanding, the moody one is the hardest to perfect, but I dont see you haveing any problems..
best of luck..

Thanks for the input - much appreciated. Have learnt heaps just from your critique. I seem to worry a bit about aperture and forget about iso. I pretty much have it set on 50 all the time. I think a few of my photo's are guilty of this and lack sharpness. Time to go and play and compare the results.
Regards Greg

Hi Greg,
Thanks for your comments.
For this shot, since you used aperture priority, your camera tried to increase the ISO and slow down the shutter speed. It resulted to slightly blurry and a bit noisy image. NOt sure if you were handholding the camera.
If you will use aperture priority, say F8 or 11 for landscapes, consider placing your camera on a tripod. So at least you get sharp images. Try to fix the ISO as well to 100 or whatever low value your camera allows.
Regarding the whitebalance, since you used custom, you may have dialed the K values to less than 4000 causing this blue tinge. Try dialing up higher to get a warmer effect (normally above 5 or 6000. Or you may also want to use the 'cloudy' WB - this will give you a warmer image.
I'm not familiar with your camera but the concepts are all the same, may just be different functions.
Hope this helps! take care.
