Comment by posthumous:
your filter is a little too heavy on the canvas grid texture, maybe that's because of the large amount of blank space at the top

The colortone gives this such a nostalgic feel. I love the way the ripples in the water really stand out with the processing.

Pretty cool scene, albeit a bit crowded in certain areas and sparse in others, making the composition feel slightly unbalanced.

Great feel of time and place in this very attractive image. The limited palette yields a lush and sensuous result. Golden light suffuses the entire scene and might be said to be the real subject. Terrific perspective. Has the feel of a classic painting. A small, subjective note is that the texture of the canvas comes through rather strongly.

What a sight!!!!! Perfectly processed, except for the severe highlight clipping in the center, and slightly clipped sky above the bridge. The gray really stands out against the magnificent golds.

I wouldn't have had the "guts" to shoot this.

I don't shoot people without their prior knowledge. I don't think it's wrong... I'm just not comfortable about it.

Well done on your part!

This is wonderful.

Congratulations on your RIBBON!!

This has grown on me. I should have rated it higher in hindsight and had I got a chance to reappraise before voting ended I would have . Apologies. It's great subject isolation and B&W suits the image well.
