It was one of those perfect evenings at the lake, the water was still, as if it were glass.

:agree:
Ryan I really like this, only gripe for me is that its very contrasty, the silhouette's a bit strong if that doesn't sound too stupid. Too black? if you catch my drift. Just my humble opinion of course. Could be these tired eyes or monitor.
Cheers

Ned, I pride myself on trying not to do any serious post-processing, I really prefer the WYSIWYG approach. My problem with this image is the noise in the water. This was shot with a 4mp camera, and it was quite dark, I was happy it was sharp.

Very laudable approach if i may say so and a good image.

I have absolutely no pride at all. I much prefer to judge the light that comes out of a picture rather than what went in. I suppose thats why I'll never be any good at it lol :) I've still a lot to learn.

Regards
Ned
