Not too sure what's going on here Steve but this looks way over sharpened or maybe too much contrast....hard to give this one an A+ Maybe a repost would help.

Something has gone awry with the processing here, I'm afraid.

This is a three exposure blend and NOT over sharpened. The print is excellent , which is how ultimately I evaluate my work. The speckles in the water are floating debris.

The trees on the left look good but the mountains do not look so good. I don't think anybody is saying anything about the debris Steve.

Hope I didn't offend you Steve...you have some of the best images I've seen on here. If the print looks good, that's what really matters. It's not the debris, there is just something about the mountains that seems off. Your Bells image from a few years ago absolutely rocks!!

No problem Jack. I think this is just a jpeg/compression issue and differences among monitors. The full size file has tons of detail, and as I said the print is quite nice. Nothing earth shaking or original here. I just wanted to show you guys what it was like this week. I will never top the image I shot there with 4x5 back in 1999 :smile:
