Both the softness added by PS and the b/w tones gave the photo a very nice dreamy mood... as if it's a glimpse into the past.
Very good work Dave,

Nicely done, Dave! A last fond look. A bit of soft focus romanticism seems to work for the image.

The dreamy mood you´ve created here fits very well with the scene. Wonderful work, full of peace and tranquility ...


Jinggoy Montenejo   {K:7549} 10/12/2006
Hi Dave,
Elaine and the canoe are well framed in this image - the shore and the reflection on the water creates a natural frame around them. Also, capturing her with her back to you gives an impression of contemplation.
The finish also adds to the tranquil mood. Although I like the B&W, a soft focus colored approach would also have worked IMHO. But definitely good composition on this Dave.


Allen Aisenstein   {K:5628} 10/12/2006
Nicely done!


Del Metheny   {K:25494} 10/12/2006

SNOW! ALREADY!! Oh wow Dave, I am never sure whether to envy you or sympathise over this kind of news.
You have taken a lovely shot here full of calm and serenity that fits well into the current project. The conversion to these delightful tones looks beautiful and the setting with the rippled water looks great. I love your partner's pose as she wistfully gazes accross the water perhaps wishing it was the start of the canoe season rather than the end. Well done to you my friend, a lovely piece of work. My very best wishes to you as always......Ray

The softness & B&W really work well here. Nicely balanced scene :)

A little sad,but very interesting in great soft tone.

A very dream like quality to it Dave, she seems to be already dreaming of the fun trips you probably have taken. I like the softness you gave it. Alison
