Cutting off the top

Nikon D3 w/24-70 f/2.8 @ 26mm f/7 1/640 ISO200

I spent last weekend in San Simeon working some architecture angles at Hearst Castle. Since I wasn’t allowed to use a tripod and therefore couldn’t use a T/S Lens to correct for distortion I focused mostly on wide angle shots and some low light interior stuff.  When I got home and started culling images I came across this one, at first glance I though it was “maybe” but then… D’OH!  I cut off the tree tops.  So this gets an instant “R” for reject.

 

 

Nikon D3 w/24-70 f/2.8 @24mm f/6 1/160 ISO200But a shot or two later I find that I did take two steps back, zoom out to 24mm and give those trees their tops back. On a side note this one will likely still fall in the reject pile because the exposure on the sky is so uneven; that’s what I get for using a circular polarizer with the sun at camera left…
