Looks like maybe HDR was here to add some natural pop? Works well.

Red Skiff, Blue Skiff, Geese Foraging in the Morning Mist...

Comment by mariuca:
I keep looking at this image and at the original one and of course that the processed one has a lot of pictorial qualities.
Nevertheless, the original is more mysterious, more photographic in nature; with the mist and less contrast it transmits an abundance of feelings; the longing is almost unbearable and so is the imminence of some danger (thus the "hero" in the foreground). For this reasons also it might get lost in the shuffle of looking at crisp and colorful images.
My point is that sometimes we push our technology in favor of a quick appreciation and perhaps we shall try on occasion to hold the processing back to a less spectacular first impression and in favor of a subtler and slower evaluation. (i.d. try to make the image with more greys, more mistier etc)

Am wondering if all this rambling is not caused by comparing these two pictures side by side.

Full of light, as well. Nicely done. Seems that many of the voters have been in this kitchen - lucky ones! Must look even better with people in the frame.
