Seems like you have altered the skin color and while doing this you selected some of the white parts at the top of the jeans as well. Looks unnatural.

Lovely, almost abstract, with blocks of color.

Lots to enjoy in this image: interesting tree silhouette, mist, reflections, delicate light. A slight quibble with the bench being the point in the image to which my eyes keep getting drawn, but not enough to diminish the overall loveliness of this scene and your capture of it.

You have done an excellent job of capturing the graceful lines of these landmasses and their reflections. Congratulations on your first ribbon and personal best score.

Thanks. I like that slightly lighter area behind the shrouds and made sure to keep that feature during the processing. The sun was starting to break through. We, that's bear_music and me, were right to go to the nearest place when the fog came because unlike early morning fog which you can kind of predict how long it will last based on the angle and intensity of the sun, this mid-day fog only lasted a very short time.

Wonderful image John. Congrats of the top 20 finish. Great sense of stillness and a beautiful capture of light. I think the fish tackle box adds a great deal, by providing a third plane on interest in between the man and the row of stone "capping" (if that's the right word). So your eye does a hop, skip, and jump from the wall, to the box, then to the man!
