Hi Brenda,

Awesome tones, and a very scerene and tranquil feel - the silhouet of the lonely tree works beautifully to break the 50/50 separation between sea and sky.

A few things are a bit distracting, though - first, the tilt in the horizon, and secondly, I think the frame with your signature underneath is too elaborate for such a photo.

Although I do like the high saturation in this image, I think tweaking down the cyan tones would create a more intense feel, removing the somewhat unnatrual cast.

Sorry if this all sounds too negative - I do like this photo - good stuff!

Cheers,

hugo

Excellent image, although I also would have preferred a bit cyan less, nevertheless the image has a srong impact and it is very equlibrated.
Congratulations.

Hi Hugo!

No color enhancement here, I will post the original later under this image. I did change the color settings in my camera a while back, and I must say that I am very pleased with the results. I have printed this image "as it is" and the colors look awesome me thinks. I did not realize the tilt until after I uploaded *sigh* I do appreciate your honest opinion though, it is always welcomed! Thank you!

Brenda :)

Your composition makes this image very special, Brenda. Perfectly composed, perfectly exposed. Beautiful shot.
