Intersting photo Eugenio. Missed you lately so just wanted to drop by and give a small critique. Love the simmering lake and look forward to some more of your photos.

Hi Eugenio, tis is an outstanding landscape shot. The strong contrast between the silhouettes and the glittering reflections in the foreground and the vanishing reflections and mountains in the background give the image a great depth. The grain doesn't distract here. Well done.

Ciao Eugenio. Wow! The Lake, with the L as a capital letter. And you took this photo of it in an special moment and with a special light. I like very much the mountains's silhouette, and the wounderful reflections on water, silver in the foreground and then more delicate and soft pink behind. Do you know that this will force you to take the same frame the next summer, to show us the golden summer reflections? Very fine thing my friend! --------------- Wow! Il Lago, con la Elle maiuscola. E tu hai scattato questa foto in un momento speciale e con una luce speciale. Mi piacciono tantissimo le sagome delle montagne, ed i meravigliosi riflessi sull'acqua, argentati in primo piano a poi più delicati e di un morbido rosa sullo sfondo. Lo sai che questo ti costringerà a fare la stessa foto con la stessa inquadratura l'estate prossima, per farci vedere i riflessi dorati che ci sono in estate? Davvero una bellissima cosa amico mio! Bravo!

Very nice shot although I would prefer to see a bit more detail in the front and on the left.

I'm sorry, but this shot just doesn't work for me. The composition is ok, but the rest could be improved. The amount of noise in the photo really kills it. Have you ever used Neat Image or Noise Ninja? They can do a great job with noise. The lack of color and detail in the image doesn't offer much for my eye to look at. Also, the large blown out spot on the water is what first attracts my eye, not the view. One way to improve this would be to shoot 2 shots, one exposed for the sky and one for the water/houses. Then, you could blend them in PS to create an image with more dynamic range.

Thanks for sharing.

This is a great site for understanding the basics of working with Digital images (photoshop, paintshop, etc):
http://www.luminous-landscape.com/
Using Neat Image is fairly straight forward. You can download a demo at http://www.neatimage.com There are probably some already created profiles for your camera that you can download from the site. Hope this helps, James

Hi, beautiful photo, believes sort in against light, very difficult subject, well succeeded composition, good contrast, IMO I would have given more space to the reflexes. Ryo

Beautiful composition of shapes and light. Quite different from anything else I've seen recently. It is a refreshing shot.
