One of the iconic photographs of Europe is this idyllic scene of Hallstatt, Austria. I am planning a new photo tour that includes the Dolomites of northern Itay as well as selected beautiful places in Austria (planned for May, 2020), and this is definitely one of those places. What's interesting about this shot is that when I was there, one of the houses in the center of the composition was under renovation. The entire facade was covered in 2 x 4's, and that made the shot less than perfect. So, not to be outdone by reality, I photographed the facade of a house in another part of the village and then pasted it over the construction mess. Fixing problems like this is one important reason why knowing only Lightroom isn't enough. It's too limiting. Photoshop is the program you need to understand. I shot this with a 24-105mm lens, and my settings were 1/50, f/11, 200 ISO, and I used a tripod.

Jim - Hi Stan, I didn't use Flood here. This is how the lake appeared.

Stan Greenberg - Jim: Was the river by Flood2 or is that the way it was?
