Took this last summer when I went back to visit family. Just learning PS and I think I made a good pic into a great pic.
before PS
after PS
A nice photo either way, though I actually like the people being in there. They help give me a sense of scale to the setting.
Nice image what is the band on the bottom???

Good composition, beautiful scene. I like it better minus the people.

Nice picture either way, but I like it much better with the people, partly because they provide scale, and partly because having a few people there, for better or for worse, is a part of the experience (the bridge, the stairs, etc are there for the people; without any people it looks like pointless stuff).

I never noticed the band in the bottom but now I remember. I didn't bring my tripod with me and used the stone wall to steady the camera and had it to far back on the wall. So I got some of the wall in the photo. The water was gray and murky anyway from a big rain the night before. Thank you all for the comments.
Both pictures are good. I prefer to have my landscape shots without the people (except maybe the wife). It just seems to give a better sense of isolation to some areas.
nice pics l like the bottom one better. I have to get up there

In general, when I take scenic photos, I like for them to be entirely free of man-made intrusions. Looking at your two versions of the same scene, however, I like the one WITH the people in it. I might like the photo better, if, you removed the people and the stairway with its railing. Hard to say definitively without seeing it that way.
Either way, I like your photo, thanks for sharing.
