Description

As suggested I bumped up the saturation to 18 and increased the contrast somewhat.

Hi Dave, You have asked for CC's so I thought I would just let you have my opinion. I like this one Dave, as it is a little brighter and has more contrast than most of your other images in your gallery. I like the composition and reflections, but IMHO I feel that this could be improved by increasing the contrast and saturation just a twitch. I hope it helps you a little. Bill J.

member since: 9/19/2005 I agree with Bill that it could use some saturation and contrast. But the general feel is very nice and I especially like the fog and mist. Nicely done!

But then some people think I border on the maniacal with it. :) I think that if you added about +18 saturation and left the contrast alone, you would get a better feeling of depth yet retain the early morning mist feel.

Thank you all for your comments and your interest. I am not sure which image I like better but this one has the increased saturation and some added contrast. Thoughts? Dave
