    Yes, although I would have got rid of the two floats to increase the simplicity - but that is only my preference. I like the processing.

    Cheers, Richard.

    I like the scene and composition a lot Cristobal, the dock is rather different looking. For me, the floats work because they add a touch of perspective, but I can see it both ways too.
    On my monitor, the colors look altered, highly saturated - not necessarily an undesirable effect - but I do see a fair amount of chroma noise in the clouds, that looks unnatural. Could be, just me.....

    I like this shot!! It takes my eyes from left to right hard and fast leaving you wondering what is on the right side of the frame. Great capture with the light on the dock from left to right. I like the total contrast as well.

    I also wonder what a B&W shot with a red filter would look like.

    Hi Richard and Eric, I looked at this in two different screens today and although I did push the saturation a bit, I don't find it overwhelming. Monitors vary so much. Here is a version without the floaters, I guess it is better, but I always feel I'm cheating... I wanted to have some drama in the sky, but I can't seem to get it where I want. Ideas?

    Here is a BW version, I prefer the color one though...
