Greetings William. Nicely composed with good use of light. I like the blue sky reflected in the foreground. Pines on the right anchoring that side with the far shoreline leading a viewer's eye to the blazing sun in the background. All that makes the shot, but the fully saturated sky colors are great also. As other critics have mentioned, the horizon is tilted. Nice work none the less. Hope it prints well on your new Epson.
Best regards,
Mike

Hello William, this is one of those WOW shots, the colours are magnificent. There are just enough trees to enjoy their silouhette against the sky - other than a slight tilt in the horizon, it's terrific, regards Maree

Thanks Maree I am still having problems making the image level.. Some of the trees kind of throw me off...I am glad you like it.

If I was an artist I'd try to paint something like this pic. The colors are astonishing, the composition could not have been better. A dream. God shows his sensibility in this work you have captured William.
Thanks very much for sharing.

Colors are sensational , for sure. Both sky and reflection are high wattage. How much color saturation did you add? The red channel is way saturated on my tonal histogram. I am also concerned that the water may drain from the lake with that 20 degree rake angle. Be good to level it up some. Best wishes, Lamar.

Thanks Lamar I need to find a way to level the image in PS, I use you eye but seems to never be right on...I am wondering if there is a line you can run across it in PS so you can level the horizon? Thanks for looking

Lamar I tried it and it puts some many grids up I can even see or make out the horizon...Is there a way to cut it down to only a couple of Horizonal line?

hi, william.
yep, there is:
Edit/Preferences/Guides, Grids & Slices --> Grid --> Gridline every --> then choose how u want it to appear on ur screen: in percent, pixels, inches, etc and, in the window below, choose how many subdivisions u prefer.
over here, mine is set like this:
Gridline every --> 33,33 percent - i do it in order to check the - sometimes useless - 1/3 "rule".
Subdivisions --> 1
anyway, u can adjust these settings at any moment, as well as others, by using the Next & Previous buttons.
hope i hv helped. best regards,
jorge
ps: ur image is colorfully beautiful, but i´ve refrained to write critiques over here 4 a while.
