Shutter-life|Adaptive photography and more, by Henrik Johansson

This is a yet another sunset photo. The lake is called Torasjärvi and it’s located in Lappland, Sweden, above the artic circle. At the shores of the lake is a remote old village that shares the name of the lake. Today, less than twenty people still live in the village. In the 1950s, the population was at least a couple of hundred. The father of one of my best friends was born in this village and they still owe the house that his family build when he was young. Today, they use it as a summer house. I visited the village in August and was immediately struck by the complete silence and serenity of the surroundings. I only stayed for two nights, but still felt completely rested when I left.

I will not dwell much into the post-processing of this photo, I applied the usual changes to saturation, contrast, clarity and color temperature. I will try to post a bit more often, at the expense of exhaustive descriptions of the post-processing. The post-processing posts will not dissapear, but they will become more infrequent.
