The color is very striking, especially in the lower half of the photograph. Have a look at this luxagraphic shot:

Similar era as far as the palette is concerned.

Whatever you did..this is nice. NNice DOF too! IMHO it would have been perfect had the distant building lights ben softer. Best of luck friend.

It's almost a really good pic! There are however
elements that are distracting which make me grade it as a better than average pic. The area in the lower left which is lit by a remote flash or spotlight really screw up the focal point of the pic! I also would have cropped the top of the pic where the clouds are really dark. I don't know what is to the left where that lighted area is, but the pic may have turned out better shot horizontally or zoomed with a telephoto lens.

Hi Joey, thanks for taking the time to critique this picture. What you thought was a spotlight reflection really screwing up the focal point of the picture is the reflection of the moon. I included it in the picture intentionally, showing the water surface a bit and balancing the sky. I think your point about cropping off (some) of the black sky at image top is a good one. I would leave some of it in in order to not place the moon too high in the frame, but some of that could go.
Thanks again,
Mark

Beautiful moonglow & mood, Mark. It does remind me of Romanticism - the dark clouds, the colors. It almost looks like a painting, the same effect you get from a pallete knife, especially on the left bank. I like your deep perspective and the graininess. Awesome blue :)

Thanks Ina! You one of the few folks that seems to "get" this pic. I think the difficult in part is the white Usefilm page the image is viewed upon. It makes the picture appear darker than it actually is and the dark details get lost on the white page. Viewed larger in higher resolution on my monitor with a mid-gray neutral background it has plenty of light.
Also, the differences in monitor color and brightness can be a real obstacle to online photo display. None of us are seeing prcisely the same thing. These same shots viewed on my monitor at work look a little murky. Oh well. Anyway, thanks for looking and taking the time to comment. It's always fun to read your right-on observations and benefit from your subtle eye!
Best,
Mark
