Winter Mood

[Matt K.]

Thank you all for your kind words, much appreciated.

As for the blue-ish tint: this is a black and white image, and it shows fine on my monitor, so I am wondering if it might be a calibration problem? I just bought a brand new monitor, a Dell 27" Ultrasharp, in order to have my images a bit more balanced and calibrated. But if my monitor should be out of calibration, I would like to know.
I have also tried to add more contrast to the image, and I find it looses the mood; I kinda like the softness of the grays, without a pure white and pure black in it. If one were to over emphasize the contrast a different, more 'harsh' looking image would be created.
But this is just my opinion.

Loses the mood. Loses.
And if you like it, and it fulfills your vision that's all that matters.

I'm with Iggy. Love the way the trees fade away in the fog. I also like the mood that the softness gives. Not sure (as the others said) that it would lose the mood with more contrast.
Also, I don't have an expensive monitor, but it is calibrated. There is no blue tinge on my monitor.
