I like the tones and the scene. The image does seem noisy to me and I would like that water glassy. I don't care for the branches intruding on the left. I wavered on this one - six, seven. Gave it a seven but I think that is too high. I'm going to guess 5.9.
Underestimated, I think this will be a 6.0. People might punish you for leaning a bit to the left. I love the cold mood on this image, countered by the warm little dot on the right. 7 from me.
I like the motif but there too much heavy noise in this picture for my taste. And the water line (aka horizon) is not in balance - 4
and I predict 4.87
Nice winter scene, I like the blue, was it morning? i like how you've got the tree in the foreground, I do that often as it pleases me. Good DOF through out . I'll agree with your estimate of 5.1 and vote this at six, Good Luck
I like the treatment on this. I'm curious whether or not it's tilted a tad to the left? Can't really tell.... I like that you kept the green on the left. I'm guessing 6.1
it's a nice scene, but it's very noisy, the branches are a bit distracting, the building is overly dark...unsure when this was shot, so without knowing times, settings, etc it's impossible to accurately rate what you were seeing vs what you captured (and I know that a lot of noise comes out in low light images being processed, I just had that happen to some vacation shots)
I think your guess is pretty good. i'll stand by your 5.155, and I hope to see that this is a very good image representing this scene from a period of little light, in which case you'll have brought out a good amount of detail, and the noise is an acceptable by-product.
A low light capture (?) which has introduced lots of noise, but I don't think this necessarily detracts from this image, more turns it almost into a painting. Your horizon is almost straight but feels like it slopes quite a bit more due to the position of the buoys on the pond. 5.48
I like the rural, blue-collar feeling of this. Reminds me of my days in Vermont. It feels like the white balance is off as it tips a bit too mcuh to the blue side. 5.20
Hello, I voted a few days ago, now returning for comments. I think that you estimated your score a little low, I gave you a six but I think that you will finish at 5,3495
10 This image hits all the notes that make it personally deeply emotional, though I can't say whether it's merely me or if many people are moved by this beautiful blue, the time of year, the time of day, the seemingly isolated rural setting and the way the fog perches on the hillside. Loneliness and exhilaration. A door opening into the rest of your life.
My favorite in this challenge.
