The journey begins.......

I started processing this morning and decided to work through my pictures in chronological order. This is a picture that my sister took with my cameral out the front of my car window. We were driving on a interstate heading to meet a friend for breakfast.. You can see the haze that made our picture taking problematic. The heat was pretty bad. I have a few more pictures from this first day that I will probably post.

You're smart to get going sooner than I have! I'm starting to play catch up in chronological order starting over a month ago! How many guesses that I won't get very far?

The new Haze filter in LR wotks brilliantly Joan... I'm sure it would tidy this up a treat..

[Rachel]

I hope you enjoyed your road trip. I will have to check out this haze filter too.

[Lin]

Nicely captured!

[Louise]

Beautiful scenery!

@vignouse Don't know anything about a haze filer. I hear people talking about filters in LR but I have never seen any other then radial and graduated. Maybe I will have time soon to look into it. I would not apply it any more to this picture as this is how it looked that morning. And that it what I wanted to capture. I know that is probably wrong and I should want to clean it completely. Oh well. That is stubborn me. Hope I get some time to check that out though as I have lots of haze to tone down. Boy I remember going into the mountains and getting sharp clear pictures and now a days it is only a matter of how much "haze" (you know we are really talking about smog) you get.

@vignouse Well dang, I should be getting caught up on my commenting but curiosity got the best of me. Easy but will take some thought to figure out the WB. But I have some pictures from the lake with this problem too. Took me a lot of playing to get rid of that haze. Thanks. I saw that "Dehaze" and thought it had to do with Vignetting since it is in the same place.

@888rachel I had to look into this and it is under effects. You can add or remove. Now to find the ND filter. UGH

[Kate]

What a wonderful trip with your sissy! This is a great shot to commemorate the start of your trip. I've never seen the dehaze filter in LR. Will have to check it out!

[Janiskay]

This is what we saw. I do like the layers in the mountains. Good trip but I really miss my Canon.

[Joan Robillard]

I would be lost without my Nikon. Glad you agreed about what we saw. You did good.

[Denise Wood]

Stunning scene :)

[Linda Plummer]

Stunning. What a great start. Can't wait to see a vacation through your camera.

[Kane Arlow]

What beautiful countryside. I don't mind the gaze in this. It does give it a sense of heat.

[Myrna O'Hara]

lovely shot

[ShazzyM]

Stunning, I love the windy road leading to the mountains. Great capture

[Gena Pegg]

The haze makes a nice atmospheric capture.....great pov and perspective...love the hills

[Ann H. LeFevre]

This looks quite familiar! I think I've been here. It's unusual to have such a haze in Vt. I think? Still, it's worth the rare shot to remember the trip by.
