Chippewa River - Fall - 2006
Uploaded: October 08, 2007
This image was taken last fall during a fishing trip on the Chippewa Flowage in Northern Wisconsin. The boat was just waiting for the first morning of fishing on a beautiful fall day.
I spent some time in the digital darkroom experimenting with different effects. This is what I came up with.

Danielle - Thanks for your kind response! I think I probably look at some of my images too long and start second guessing myself. I did this one twice because I wasn't happy with the first. - Mike #4913059Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
