68 views and not one comment.. tsk tsk tsk Anyway, I like this one. The first one didn't really seem to hold my interest, but this one works well IMHO.
I looked at it on my work monitor and it seemed like the greens could use a little boost. When I got home to my calibrated monitor, they are a bit richer, but I think they could be saturated just a bit more. If it's possible to bring up the shadows in the reflection, I think that would give it a boost as well.
I really like what you're working on here. keep posting them.
I haven't played with a fisheye before and I am looking at this with an uncalibrated laptop monitor, so disregard these comments if any don't apply.
I really like the image composition, and the reflection is great (I am a sucker for mountians reflecting in lakes but who here isn't!). I would love to see a little more saturation to the sky to distinguish it more from the mountain - but that is my personal taste only.
The black framing does seem a little heavy and distracting to me. I notice some little glitches in the round framing at about 1:00, 3:00 and 10:00? Maybe reducing the amount of framing or making the outside circular as well?
I was traveling for about 2 weeks, and wasn't able to keep up with all that is going on here, so I apologize if you explained this earlier. I'll go dig up the previous images that Curtis referenced.
Best regards,

Sandy,
This is taken with a fisheye lens, yet it doesn't have the normal 360 degree spherical view normally associated with this type of lens. Do you correct the perspective in Photoshop?
It really looks like a wideangle image with a circular border on it.
Jim, you're quite mistaken,I''m afraid. This is an unmanipulated fisheye shot. You can easily see the distorted trees along both the right and left edge.Sandy
