I disagree with the tighter crop as it eliminates the reflections in the water that adds to the beauty of the photograph.
How old are you? Just curious.
Interesting way to process an image
I have spent a lot of time looking and cannot find "MYNAME" anywhere.
Several years ago my (then) girlfriend and I drove to an Oregon coast town on black Friday morning. While in a tourist type store looking for gifts, the store was playing Christmas CDs. After the fourth Neil Diamond Christmas song (fifth song pIaying) I walked up to the counter. I asked, are you the owner of this store? Yes I am, can I help you? Yes, I would like to purchase that CD that is playing. I'm sorry, that is the only copy that I have, but you can probably find it at Fred Meyers. Well, you don't seem to understand, I want to buy the one in your player so that I don't have to listen to it 32 days before Christmas. After that, one of her employees whispered to me that they had been listening to the Christmas music for a week and were sick of it already. When we left without purchasing anything, there was not the usual "thanks for coming in " speal from the owner. Since then, if I go into a store playing Christmas music more than a week or two early, I turn around and walk out Get online and place an order.
The worst for me is "No problem"
