I like the serenity of the scene. It makes me feel like autumn is approaching. I would like to see the water even more still, if that's even possible to capture. Nice, peaceful scene. I'd lie to see this one at a larger resolution to really enjoy the detail. 6.

Comment by SoulJance:
wow great location. You must have been annoyed with that bird that decided to paddle though the reflections. Shot would have been better at high tide and with some more sky interest. otherwise nice shot

Comment by posthumous:
Never before has so little been conveyed by so much. Your title is very apt. A palpable sense of isolation. All this texture to convey emptiness. Remarkable. I give you my Posthumous Blue Ribbon.

5 - A reasonable use of HDR, but not a very engaging photo, in my opinion

7 - A reasonable use of HDR, and an engaging photo, in my opinion

10 - A fantastic use of HDR, and an out of this world photo, in my opinion

Gothic glow? I don't know that one... I'll have to look it up!

I love this photo--it really makes me wish I was there. I want to take a picnic and just sit out on the point and listen to the sounds. You made it very inviting!!

edited to add: I forgot to look for waldo each time!! I got too interested in the spot!

This is lovely, Robert. I like the way the screen creates a watercolor of the lights.

Comment by Melethia:
I can't explain the score on this one. I do see some banding in the sky on my darker of the two monitors - maybe that's it? Otherwise it's a lovely fall palette of color, well composed (as always) and a very good job of hiding Waldo!

Excellent processing, well done. Lovely. ETA: I re-read the comment and just wanted to say, I wasn't just scoring this based on the processing!
