Red at Dawn #3

Description

This is my canoes once again. Submitting it under MT. I cropped, added some staturation and played with the brightness and contrast a tad. I just love the misty fog on lakes in the mornings. This was taken last year.

Brenda- Hey girl. I love this. Simple yet alluring with the colors so bright, the green in the back really bring out the red in the canoes, and your right, the mist comming off the lake is just the added bonus to make a wonderful picture.
Great work my friend
Take care #745339

Thanks Frank! I really liked how I was able to bring out the colors on this one. My first tries were ok but not as vivid. They are in my gallery somewhere. Infact I colored the pond a golden color when gold was the monthly theme. #4834666
