The competition will be running a bit late this week, so in the meantime I'll put up this shot for editing any way you see fit.

I'm thinking we've just broken camp and are canoeing towards the opposite shore in the crisp morning air.

What will we find lurking in the depths of Scotland’s beautiful and mysterious lochs? Only the Shadow knows.

I can almost smell the smouldering remains of the camp fire
. You did a nice job of bringing out the early morning light hitting the pine tree.Aug 14, 2018 11:52:53 #

It would be really nice if it transpired that Nessie had a distant cousin (about 70 miles distant). If you ever wanted to do any random lurking, peaty water is as good a place to do it as any

What I ended up with here makes me feel more engaged with the scene. A more intimate connection. I seldom know where I am going when I start in on one of these landscape shots of yours, or any of them for that matter. I don't have much practice processing landscapes like these. I don't generally think in terms of changing things in my own color photos, other than basics. I also seldom crop other than slightly. I got started with this, building as much contrast into the foreground water as I could. Then the wide open sky seemed at odds with the close water, so I ventured a crop that took out the tree top, and surprisingly, I felt pretty comfortable with committing that atrocity. Thats my story

Atrocity forgiven
. The foreground water looks excellent and totally believable. I was half expecting crops of the water and sky. I too feel comfortable and engaged with the scene. Thanks for participating, fergmark.Aug 18, 2018 20:56:17 #
Just saw this R.G.
I went for a one image HDR with a few minor adjustments.

Nicely done jim-Pops. You managed to avoid the usual down side to single shot HDR processing. The shot has good depth and contrast with strong colours.
