Last Drop of Blood

Uploaded: December 02, 2007

Description

The sunset over some fields on the outskirts of Lund (southern Sweden) during late summer. Taken with a wide angle zoom lens. The lighting conditions changed every single minute, and I was fortunate to be able to capture this (as it was gone 30 seconds later:). The real work with this picture was to remove a plant from the scene: 5h of brute-force (no tools.. except copy paste) pixel work on the full size picture; in the discussion part I'll upload a resized original for comparison. The larger versions of this picture are more majestic as there is almost infinite detail to behold. :)
