A wonderful bucolic shot. Appears on the edge of being oversharpened, but not unpleasant. I'd be tempted to increase the black levels a tad for a bit more contrast.

Very nice image, Barbara,
I like the simple lines of the trees and moss. Nice mood to the scene.
I might toy with bringing up the saturation in the greens just a little, but not enough to spoil the mood.
Well done!

This is quite a nice shot Barbara. The sidelight works very well with the trees and moss and the stern of that little boat is an excellent addition to the scene. Might push the contrast just a bit and back off a little on sharpening but in any case this is good work.

Barbara, I like your image of this hideaway! Delicate light, the low contrast fits in well with the atmosphere.

The light on the trunks and moss is wonderful and the boat adds a sense of place and of mystery. Great image, Nicely done

Lovely scene Barbara. I like the light and sense of mystery...... and ask "Why is the boat there?" A secret rendezvous, a hunting trip, just a nature hike. I like your image sparks questions in my mind. Only other critiques were already mentioned by Robert but I like how you've got me involved in the scene.

Very neat image, peaceful and mysterious at the same time. I do agree on the "almost over-sharpened" comment previous, at least on my monitor it's close. Beauty though!

Very pretty scene, Barbara. The lighting on the trees and moss looks great. I enjoy the feel that including the boat added here.

Gorgeous photograph! Beautifully lit, nicely composed, well processed, I dont think its too sharp. I think that boat has been there for a while though!

I love the scene and side lighting. A beautiful Florida landscape setting. I agree on the oversharpening. You might try Tony Kuyper's sharpening actions, they're the best I've come across so far.
