Comment by Brin:
The landscape is beautiful and I like the warm and soft colours and the reflection in the water, but the silhouette is not interesting enough for my taste. Lovely shot though!

Comment by coolhar:
this looks very over-processed to me, the softness where the trees are reflected, the clouds, and the haloing all cry out TOO MUCH

Very well done... I can offer no advice except maybe the water drops on the bench but then they could be adding to the effect too... Good luck

The foliage looks so unnatural here. Sorry. A very nice idea, very nice leading lines, lovely composition, just strange trees. 5

wow, you lost a lot of detail when using neatimage. I don't think I like what it's done to the trees.

Interesting image. I like it a lot. You've created a nice mood with good colors and generally hight technical quality. I suppose you purposely generated the smoothed areas using your noise reduction software (NeatImage?). This borders on digital art, which is not a bad thing in my opinion but may be with other voters. As a photoartist taking full control of the image like you have done in this case, you must strive to make it perfect in every way. The only place I'd recommend changes would be in the reflections of trees with fine detail in the water. The "lower" parts of the reflected trees in left center are a little too "fuzzy". It would be hard to correct, but worth the effort. But mostly the brighter detail on the rightmost part of the detail refelected in the lake needs to be "sharper" and better show the detail above.

This is a beautiful photo, very serene. It looks like the trees have been neatimaged too much though

The neatimage application here is far too heavy and spoils the photo cos there is no texture left at all!
