Allegretto in C Sharp Minor (Digitally Processed)

I have the same image "serenade' with out digital processing. This is not for everyone and I am sure the camps will be split re the aesthetics. Too surreal for you?

I like it!

Exquisitely, and stunningly, luminous! Breathtaking! Kudos on your fine work.

Joscelyn Ross and Richard - thanks. I used PS to give it a little pizzaz but all the elements you see were there.

A really beautiful result, Tony!

Very nise reflection image

This is absolutely great! Very artistic and colorful.

My warm congrats

Sometimes we need dream. Congrats. Best regards from Italy, Antonio

Tony,

  Beautiful image with powerful colors & reflection.  Take care, Patsy

Hi Tony

The middle horizon made a beautiful center of symmetry and also led to a very beautiful digital processing, it is a joyous dream.

I liked the pastel colours in the original image, but I also like this one, cropped close, with the more vibrant colours. Very nice!

Not too surreal at all. I love images with great impact and this one has it. Marvelous work.

Very good.  Among the two, I like the other one better.  Best Regards,

I am currently working on an assignment and may not be able to visit everyone who commented right away but I will. I am pleasantly surprised at how many people like this version. Maybe it is because it is not that far from reality and the way I saw the scene. All the very best.

Brilliant work...well done Tony!

The blues and yellows are nice in this one, Tony, but the darkened & grainy sky below the sun is really suffering from the over-processing.  And for me the centrally-placed horizon is not very dramatic.

Tony, admirable creative work, almost retouching the work of the Creator.

Keith, A.K. and Jeff - thanks.

Jeff I agree about the area below the sun and it is something I plan to correct. I still plan to maintain the 50:50 split because of the reflection and mirror effect. I do appreciate  your candor.

Woh.. the picture look happening man, its great man.

Good job i like it alot...

Alex - thanks.

I could almost hear the tune of the classical music in this image. A fairly brisk tempo is likened for this image and I could imagine how this sunrise fades so fast and you caught this in the very moment of its beauty.

Excellent title that describes this wonderful landscape appropriately.

Best regards, Tony

A nice image that manages to break all the rules, yet remain visually attractive.

I am late to the party but it is surreal and I like it. Wonderfully processed. Like you said it isn't for everyone but for me it works very well.
