Molas Reflections
The Grenadier range is reflected at evening off of Molas Lake near Silverton. Critique and suggestions are certainly welcome.

I spent last week in the Silverton area, mainly at Clear Lake in hopes of a colorful sunrise. One from there is posted in ESS/Landscape.

Love the subtle colors and that gorgeous light on the mountains. I kept looking to find something to critique, but you can't mess with perfection! :toast: Looks like it would have been a perfect camping night too...

Really like the pastel coloration of this image. The only item missing is a monstrous elk or moose in the foreground :wink:

I totally agree with the above comments. I'll add the composition is spot on, I love the placement if the group of trees to the left which adds interest to that side if the image. Your processing style really works the middle of the histogram which ultimately lends itself well to our eyes. It's just easy to look at. This one sort of has a Guy Tal feel to it.

Thank you for your comments and the beer. Ken, having Bullwinkle in the scene would have been real nice.

Absolutely gorgeous work on this one Doug. The only think I see wrong is it doesn't have my name on the lower right side... :biggrin:
