What a beautiful sunset! What a peaceful place! I only used an orange and grey degradé cokin filter. No PS effects.

oh my, Su!!
This is an incredible image!
I love the way the sun streams through the break in the clouds, the way it lights up and glows through them, and creates such depth and texture.
You've captured such peace and calm in the water and reflections.
How the water turns from silver to gold..
.. how the boats are motionless and empty.... how the mountain rises and falls.
Gosh, this is beautiful!!
Superb work, Su
Best of luck with your work, and make sure to take time to relax

Susana Matos December 16, 2004

well, I don´t know what to say and how to thank you for your wonderful words.

Since June of this year I suddenly began to enter more seriously in the world of photography and found myself needing to do lots of things/work and never had much time for me. It has been hard but I end the year in a nice way with the exhibition I dreamt about here in my home town running until the end of the month.
All this to say I am really sorry for not having much time to make the comments I used to write and I miss that time a lot.
Because of that I appreciate even more your words, your time, and also love to see you like my way of seeing the world.

Thank you, thank you to all of you, you were a HUGE contribution on the changes I am living. .... and really, i´m sorry, it seems I never improve my english well enough, I feel like you will understand only half but I am feeling very tired, don´t manage to write better.

And as always, I do hope to manage to comment later on your finalists, I am sorry!

Merry Christmas to you all and regards from Portugal, Su #977223
