Another from Killarney

I have another shot from this exact same place, but with a totally different feel. I find it very cool that two shots with very similar comps taken in the exact same place can still be so different. If you click on my gallery you will see the other shot I am talking about ... the one with the canoe, pink clouds and little rainbow in the left. I used TK's "Make it Glow" screened back to about 50% to bring out the purple and blue in the sky. Curious if anyone thinks I have over done it. Let me know what you think!

Wayne, I like your composition very much. The long exposure used to smooth out the water makes the scene seem very peaceful. I do feel, however, that the colors in the sky are a little overdone for my tastes.

This is really beautiful. The earth shadow looks completely natural to my eye.
Congrats on the OP Can. cover! :toast:

Can't imagine a shot of a canoe on a lake any better than this. Really well done.

Love the smooth water, the comp is perfecto... as the first reply said, just wonder a bit about the extreme color?. Nice work either way!

What a great scene! I really like the lake and canoe, but I'm not sold on the bright blue band in the sky. So serene! :toast:

Spectacular color Wayne. I especially like the bright outline on the top side of the canoe!

That calm water, and the simple minimalist feel is just breathtaking.
