For some reason, this shot reminds me of the book cover for Mystic River. Its quite different than this of course but the colors are similar and I think the mood you've captured here might be similar too.

The boat slipped silently down the quiet stream, fading in and out of the mist as the silent snow-shrouded shores stood sentinel, not knowing whither it was going, nor what its purpose may be. For now, it was enough that it glided by, bothering neither shore with its stealthy passage.

That this is shrouded in mist makes it feel a bit eerie to me, but in a way that makes me curious not in a way that makes me shy away.

Nice shot. The fog adds to the pic.
03/12/2009 08:55:42 PM
Your cool tones and mist give this one a very eerie feeling. I feel more of a sad moodiness than that of a happy creation type of image. I usually don't lend too much credence to titles, but this one is at such odds with the scene that it almost detracts from the image.
03/12/2009 01:57:40 PM
What a serene image! The blues are gorgeous.
03/12/2009 12:30:26 PM

Very moody. The tree silouhettes look very cool in the mist.
03/11/2009 10:52:23 PM

overall too dark for my taste, the vignetting adds to that impression

And the devil created spoooky.. reminds me of Sleepy Hollow. 7
