| Sun Moon Lakeby  finch1979Comment: | Originally posted by FrankRobinson: Hi Michael, greetings from the Critique Club!  I hope you find something useful in this.
 
 My overall impression is that this is a very pleasant photograph of a beautiful spot. You have chosen a good time of day and the composition is very structured. The post processing seems a little heavy-handed though.
 
 Technically:  You have achieved a good depth of field, and the focus is pretty sharp - although at this size (800px) the detail suffers - that is not something that you can do much about.  I am interested in your choice of aperture - f13 seems unnecessarily tight to achieve this - I would have thought f8 or even f7.1 would be enough. That would have allowed you to have a faster shutter - your current shutter speed is (for me) an odd choice: too slow to guarantee sharpness if windy, too fast to give the glassy effect on the water.
 
 Artistically:  It is a very well composed shot, clearly utilising rule of thirds, with the sun well positioned and a nice diagonal from the boats. The trees are unfortunate, but nothing to be done about them. I would perhaps have cropped off the extreme right as the town over on the other side breaks up the peaceful line between the water and mountains.
 
 PP:  Not a lot to say, but it does seem a little over-saturated, particularly the reds. Some of the boats have started to look a little 'blocky', which I have noticed strong reds are prone to in digital, so I might have toned that down a little.
 
 In summary, this is a very pleasant shot of a pretty scene but is processed to be a little too punchy for the peacefulness I think you are going for.

 THANKS YOUR USEFUL COMMENT. ABOUT THE TREE, I JUST CAN NOT DEAL THAT VERY GOOD, U R RIGHT. BECAUSE I FIRST TIME WENT TO THERE FOR PHOTOGRAPHY, AND SPACE LIMITATION BUT IT NOT A EXCUSE FOR A GOOD PHOTOGRAPHER. Message edited by author 2010-10-24 03:12:03. |

 Amazing right. We can go to there and take the boats.
 Enjory the scenery. It becomes one of the most popular scenic spots. |
