Beautiful! I love the simple and elegant composition of this shot, border works well here as well. Nicely done! I wouldn't be surprised to see this one near the top, good luck!! 10

I like the composition, the bridge leads the eye to the centre, but I find the colours too saturated.

Think I like the editing and good subject. Not sure it gives me the feeling of serenity.

Comment by BobsterLobster:
Great post-processing which comes close to being over the top but stays the right line of overdone. Purple sky works well. Selective blurring has worked well. Not completely convinced by the composition of the bridge which looks like it needs a bit more of a diagonal placement in the shot. A little too much foreground has unbalanced the composition.

Wow, beautiful shot. Reminds me of Thomas Kinkade paintings with the great lighting. Very impressive. 10

Nice. Not sure if serinity is a mood or an emotion? But, the picture is very peacful and inviting. A place i would love to escape to. Only other thing I am drawn to the white spot in the upper left hand corner, would be nicer, to me, if it was not there. 7.
