The black-and-white image depicts a serene lakeside scene with a backdrop of rocky hills and dense pine trees. In the foreground, a man, a woman, and a dog are sitting on a paddle board, paddling on the calm lake. Other small boats and people can be seen scattered across the lake and along the shoreline. The sky is filled with fluffy clouds, casting soft shadows over the landscape. The overall atmosphere is peaceful and leisurely, suggesting a day of outdoor recreation and enjoyment.

Low tide and a dreary day at Hall's Harbour, Nova Scotia, with the boats on the ground.

Shot on a Google Pixel 6 Pro and post-processed in OnOne Photo Raw 2023 (exposure, sun flare) and Aurora HDR (Cool Landscape filter).

I also processed it like the one below. Which one do you like better?

Same picture as above, but made to look old-fashioned.

The photos for each panorama were taken by a DJI Mini 2 drone shooting in raw (DNG) format. ISO was fixed at 100 and the aperture for each photo was 2.8. Shutter speeds varied from 1/2000 to 1/3200 S. The photos were then post-processed in Luminar 4.

I’m partial to the monochromatic version myself. What about you?
