foggy lake

Hey guys I tweaked the photo a bit, the best I now. So here a new

copy of it.

I waited for that third duck for at least 5 or more minutes to come

across my viewfinder.

I like the composition in this shot and I would have been attracted to

this scene too. It might benefit from the dock being straightened a

bit but that is only my opinion. I also really enjoyed your interior

shots of the abandoned buildings. Keep up the good work !

I never noticed the dock very crooked. Thanks Garry, Good point...

This is an image I like so much that I want to give it a seven but I

won't. As lovely as the foreground is, it needs to be sharper for me

(Focus stacking, etc) and the wood on the pier is a bit too bright and

attracts my eyes there. because of the fog in the background you could

have chosen to focus on the foreground and let the background be out

of focus. This photo has lots of potential - just need to brush up on

the technicals. Rated 5

Hi John

I will see what I can do with this pic in photoshop. But I want to

know more about this term Focus stacking? Great advise Thanks

How I took this photo was very interesting. I laid down on the boat

and put the camera right down on the the hull. so I see what John is

saying....

Theresa. I like your work, duck or no duck. The colors are so good.

Thanks Tommy,

You have a very nice portfolio, it is friendly and warm and your landscapes of America is my favorite portfolio.

Dear new PNfriend, this one is really a very nice, clever and particular composituion with 5-6 plans of image that tell of a journey of your eye-mind in this corner of world! Brava!

Really like this shot, there are a lot going on in the shot, but every aspect adds to the overall shot. A good variety of textures and lights. Well seen and processed, best wishes William.

I like this because there is an unusual element of context in here. It is like as a photographer you have taken the viewer through a journey that ought to be mundane but actually is rather spectacular because you have included elements that were totally unexpected.

Wow, thanks Starvy.

I actually took this photo at 6:35 am and I was needing some time for myself and Iron Creek which is located in SD is just an amazing spot.
