Dusty Lake, Qunicy, WA

This is Dusty Lake near Quincy, WA. This required quite a bit of work

but still looks to me like there is too little detail, or too much

noise(no noise reduction)...or something. I'm going to try again

this evening to see if I can get "sharper" or "crisper"

results...anyway, any comments or suggestions?

Great photo. What would you think of cropping it about midway. Just my opinion but loss of detail in the front is too prominent and takes more away than it gives.

Pawel - Thanks!

Jim - Do you mean loss of detail in that it is lost in the shadows? If that is the case, I think it is probably a result of my monitor being incorrectly configured at home - this one looks significantly darker at my office (where I am now) than where I did the editing at home. If that's not what you're talking about could you elaborate?

Thanks, Brian

Here's one I quickly edited at my office (just saved a copy off the web so this is not quality but serves it's purpose. Does this one resolve the loss of detail problem? Brian
