Well done. Nice light great post production work

Great painting-like qualities and wonderful composition.

I would appreciate a brief statement about your vision regarding the colouring of this picture. It is not realistic. These are not the colours I see when visiting such a site. I assume you have worked on the colours in Photoshop. Was your aim to rescue a picture that was not right in the camera? Or did you have some artistic vision of the colours that you wanted to put into the picture? To my mind the result is rather like the tacky hand-coloured black-and-white photos from a hundred years ago. Were you seeking to produce that kind of retro feel? If so, why? Puzzled. John

well i think this is an interesting beautiful image , And i personally like the colors achieved , i lived in NH for 8 years and never got a chance to shoot this , wonder how far rhis is from rochester NH ,? Excellent job !

The vision: well, when I took the image I was new to photography and didnt know about vision yet. I picked up photomatrix and started to understand it as a tool to achieve some painted texture HDR looks. This image came to mind, since I was unable to ever make it work when I was a beginner. It was a stormy night and my vision as I worked the image was to capture that magical moody night. In particular, what works for me is the sky color and texture matching the colors in the rocks.

surrealistic...
