About I didn't like the colours on the original so I desaturated everything and then colourised in photoshop. I attach original and you can say which one you prefer.

Linn Currie   {K:24426} 6/6/2004
It's rare that I prefer a PS version to the original :-) In this case, I must agree that PS allowed you to make this image something that is extraordinary!

Liquid gold!

Hugo de Wolf   {K:185005} 6/6/2004
Hi Kristina, Difficult choice. I do like the warm tones in the big post, but I don't think the tones in the original shot are all that bad either. I always tend to go for the most natural version, but the orange brown tobacco tones make the bright highlights come out better, and I find that very strong in the toned version. I still think I'd chosen the original one. Good shot, and an excellent composition.

Cheers,

Hugo


Ian McIntosh   {K:38813} 6/6/2004
A glamourous dream.

Nicole Marcisz   {K:10166} 6/6/2004

cheers,

beautiful work here. nicely done. love the sparkles in the water. you gave this photo a warm touch. excellent work.


Massimo Di Maggio   {K:-56668} 6/6/2004
You gave a Brazilian look to this landscape, but I like also the original one, the reflections on the water are magic and the sky is heavy and dramatic. Oh Kris, it?s the first time I comment an attached image ;) but your idea to put the original shot is very good and useful too. Kisses Max


Roberto Arcari Farinetti   {K:178244} 6/6/2004

Graham Mulrooney   {K:16868} 6/6/2004
A great composition Kris and I particulary like the sparkle on the water. This image is much warmer than the cold undertones of the original. Think I would have made it a little less red as the water seems alomost a little muddy.
Regards,
Graham.


Lou Dina   {K:12194} 6/6/2004
Great light and reflections Kristina. Lou


Lori Stitt   {K:74437} 6/7/2004
I like this one!! Simply beautiful colors, and I really like the sparkles. Were the stars from an on lense filter? Or PS?

Very nice, great composition and framing!!
EXCELLENT!
Lori :)

Rebecca Raybon   {K:26655} 6/7/2004
Truly magnificent photo. Congrats.


edmond lisy   {K:10311} 6/7/2004
Wonderful tones here, its so strong and impressive, the shining "stars" on water looks interesting, I think that is the characteristic of the canon's aperture ~

Paul's Photos   {K:34954} 6/7/2004
nice composition and good effect with the colors


Zsolt Radákovits   {K:7763} 6/7/2004
Hát...

Nagyot alkottál!!!
Az eredeti se rossz, de sokkal jobban tetszik a műalkotásod.
Ez a klassz így lehet tanulni, meglátni a lehetőséget az eredetiben!!!

Gratulisszimust!!!

Uwe Bachmann   {K:10222} 6/7/2004
the coloured version is like a fairytale, so moody, so full of emotion. this does not mean that the original version is not good either. but...well...this one is more emotional...

great reflections of light btw.

cheers, uwe


Hayri CALISKAN   {K:16203} 6/7/2004
An excellent composition with great atmospher dear friend.

Dear Kristina
Thanks for your comment.
this photo amazing.I love the colour and the spakling water reflection. Great shot. cong
nice to meet yuo


Thilo Bayer   {K:50301} 6/7/2004
A lot is said here =)

Great that you included the original picture - and credits to you for your strong rework. You squeezed a lot out of it, that's for sure! I really love the stars on the water. the only minor thing for me is the frame. It would work without, IMHO. cheers, thilo


Lucas Macedo   {K:12840} 6/7/2004
Great shot and rendering PS work, Kriss!
I certainly preffer your edited version, very moody!
Best regards ..... Lucas

splendida composizione, ricca di affascinante tonalitŕ e magica luce!
Un gran bel lavoro!
ciao donato


Richard Thornton   {K:26442} 6/7/2004
I'd say it's improved, Kris. The colorized version seems to have more shadow detail.


Ursula Luschnig   {K:21809} 6/7/2004
Beautiful scenery and tones.At first i preferred the golden version,but when i look back and forth,i`m not sure...I like the coloured a lot.The eye-catching version is the golden one,i think.To be salomonic:Both are very good.
Regards,ursula


Kristina Kohut   {K:49990} 6/8/2004
Thankyou Lori, and sorry for my late reply! No, I didn't use any filter. Sometimes, if I'm lucky, there can be some nice sparkle effects if I am taking the photo towards sun.


Amer Kapetanovic   {K:2473} 6/8/2004
The title fits perfectly. Very moody scene, I love it!


Bikramadittya G. Roy   {K:7172} 6/8/2004
Very beautiful moment captured well. I love the way u have used the tobacco tone, but to be honest I don't like the kind of framing you've done. Why should u let the frame encroach on the picture? Cheers


NN     {K:26787} 6/9/2004
Kriss, congrats on Featured Critique of the Day!!! Du lägger ner mycket tid pĺ att kommentera andras bilder och jag tycker att kritiken ocksĺ är saklig - och dessutom sĺ rolig ibland!


Kshitiz Anand   {K:4848} 6/10/2004
I love to dream.. in fact thats what i have it on my home page (u can check that out) .. I dream a lot.. so definitely i wanna be at this place!!.... coz as u say this is where dreams live!!!

I prefer the color picture


Domenico Pescosolido   {K:10022} 6/10/2004
Hi Kristina, thanks for your pretty nice comment, also your prfolio is very nice and I like your DOF controll. In this shot I prefer your way to change the tones even if your original shot it's nice too.


john amore   {K:14015} 6/12/2004
Ah dream land moody, mystery, and a touch of romance an out standing composition John


Rawabi Al-Nuaimi   {K:15659} 6/12/2004
wow.. very dreamy... beautiful!!! the original is beautiful too.. but the golden tones are adding something to it :)


Linn Currie   {K:24426} 6/12/2004

Wow what a great job you have done again, Kriss:) I really love this colourised photo. The colours are excellent and good composition and you really have a good dof:) My compliments!


Jan Symank   {K:15755} 8/25/2004
I like this a lot !
It was a nice idea to make a monochrome out of it
So the light reflections are beautifully enhanced
Bravo and regards from Jan

Your color effect and mood here is just superb. Great work indeed. Cheers.


Bradley Prue   {K:30312} 8/29/2004
No doubt for me, that this brown beauty is superior! I love the frame effect....how'd you do that??? Your work is really terrific!
..Brad


Lukasz Kuczkowski   {K:14684} 9/1/2004
yoo have capture the mood of this place; it is really beautiful place;
lovely reflections

Alison DuFlon   {K:36165} 9/1/2004
Both of the photos are nice, but the gold one is beautiful, the amazing little star shaped sparkles leading you across the lake and the shimmering leaves of the tree just really capture your attention. Going to my favorites. Thank you for the comments on my photos. Alison


Kristina Kohut   {K:49990} 9/3/2004
Hi Bradley and sorry for my late reply! Thanks for your kind words!

This framing is not advanced, it goes very quick to do it. I just duplicated a layer, cut out the middle on top layer and chose "multiply". That's it! :-)


Debby Biri   {K:4741} 9/7/2004
I certainly agree that the colorized version is more enjoyable. I love the sun dancing on the water. -- Debby


Aimee' Desire'   {K:732} 11/10/2004
Kristina, I love this! You are very creative.


Judi Liosatos   {K:34029} 11/16/2004
I just love the sparkles you have captured here Kristina. Well done. Thankyou also for commenting on my work. I appreciate it.

Great work in PS. Looks like e river of Gold.


Donald Hanson   {K:460} 2/3/2005
Very, Very good......Compared to the original which was kind of ordinary, this is a huge, I repeat huge improvement. I like the highlights in the water the most. You are such a creative person.


Roberto Baez Duarte   {K:3830} 2/6/2005
I would like to be there.
nice shot ?????

Oooh, yeah! I definitely prefer your colored version, it's really nice choice of the tone. Beautiful! 7/7


David Moore   {K:330} 3/2/2005
Definitely the filtered photo is more moody. Just a serene shot after filter.
Composition is well formed. Reflection from water makes the shot!


Massimo C.   {K:1073} 11/18/2005
I love this!
u've done a good job with photoshop, and u've had a great "eye"
