Betty--
Very sharp. The gentle curves of the track
make for a pleasing composition. The relatively bright sky fools your cameras'
meters into causing them to darken the view, in order to
compensate for the averaging
overall brightness, resulting in an over-darkening of the terrestrial
(lower) portion of the view. There are several ways to help avoid
this: aim your stereo rig lower and hold the shutter button half-way down, then re-compose by aiming upward, and
then depress all the way to take the picture. Another way is to selectively
brighten the darker areas with your
photo editor software. Remember that the
filters of our anaglyph glasses further darken the view, so do your exposure
corrections while wearing your 3D glasses.
Also, the sky has no depth unless artificially
induced, and partially overwhelms the more important aspect of the
view, the terrestrial foreground. That means that an unneccesarily
large
portion of the view is flat and empty. Therefore,
unless there is something important about the entire sky, feel free to crop out
some of it for more effective 3D. The example I include
shows a comparison to yours, where I both reduce
some of the sky's expanse, and brighten the more important, and stereo-rich
foreground.
My only objection is that I feel that my version is
a bit too squarish, but that can be made more rectangular by horizontally
cropping more of the sky, or even cropping horizontally from the
lower,
terrestrial part of the picture, or both, but
that's a matter of personal taste, rather than a technical matter.
