Comment by RyanW:
has a very "other worldly" feel to it. I love the sense of familiarity while also feeling like I'm seeing something very alien and foreign.
10 and a favorite

Lovely image with the mist providing a great mood. I think I would like a crop with either more reflection or less reflection. Less reflection would emphasize the tree and more reflection would emphasize the reflection. If you are comfortable cloning, removing the wood fence would create more of wildness of the photo.

I can never capture fog/mist like this. I always end up with a blurry mess :-(

Excellent photo

Congratulations on the red.
And thanks for detailing the processing.
Several nights ago, when I had trouble falling asleep, your serene image came to mind... and it helped.

Thanks again !

The trees are called "Sabino"

How far from the original ? you mean how much editing ? Light was extreme, so it was a good candidate for HDR, although I processed a single RAW, the SOOC is way to dark as I picked the one where the highlights were manageable.

LR gave decent results with highlights -100, exposure +1 , shadows +100
gradient filter on the bottom to add clarity and a bit more exposure
gradient on top to add contrast and saturation

wish I had used a speed of 1/125 to freeze the ducks, I think I had a 3 stop ND and ISO 50 , so there was more than enough light to do it ...

The lake is quite pretty to visit when there is no one around, like 6AM :) around lunch time it gets crowded, there are boat rides, food vendors, music, a 180 degree turn from the mood shown here. There is a hotel that looks decent right outside the park.
