You could have dusted it first! Very nice, the dust does add an interesting texture.

I think the plush upholstery is distracting to the wonderfull lit and grainy camera. how about a 9?

To answer Shiiizzzam:
Because there was limited lighting when I took the shot, the picture had almost a natural black and white look to it. I then increased the saturation on the whole image and adjusted the color balance with a little more yellow and magenta to achieve the effect you see.

The fog created a natural gradient in the sky and also in the water. The neat thing about this image is that when I was taking the shot my battery was totally dead, and I had to keep turning my camera on because it kept shutting off due to lack of battery. I was able to snag a couple shots and this was one of them. I wasn't sure if the image came out good or not until I got home to look at it on the pc. Thanks again for liking it.
