Thanks, Iza! It’s true, sometimes on Lake Superior it’s hard to pick out the horizon – it feels like the lake just goes on forever…

I love the colors on this image. You cannot tell the sky from the water. Amazing.

Hey, Mark! The cliff area actually does open up a bit in larger sizes – I’m actually sitting under a 30″ x 45″ print of this one right now! I had a fair amount of trouble with noise in this one and wasn’t happy with the results when I tried to sharpen that area more, but that was quite a while ago – might be worth revisiting with the tools & knowledge I’ve gotten since then…

Much more subtle tones in this one Jack, but still very pleasing. Since you can see some detail in the hillside, I do wonder about the difference in the overall image if that area was softly lightened and sharpened a bit. I would be curious also to see what Topaz adjust or Detail would do to the hillside, then mask out the effect on the rest of the image because it doesn’t need it. Very tranquil image.

Thank you, Stephane – that was my feeling as I stood on the shore, and what I was hoping to convey!

Jack,
I suddenly slow down, I feel immediately peaceful and centered as I let the colors of the sky and the silence of the water operate their magic.

Thanks for this beautiful instant

Stephane
