93 Nov 24 Reply Thanks Ed, that makes sense about the color! I was thinking it was the case :D

It's a gorgeous location!

93 Nov 24 Comment Hi Ed, I like how you composed this image with the river snaking through it.

To me, the color looks a bit too yellow and the sky looks over processed a bit in the center of the frame, there also seems to be some ghosting at the skyline.

Hope you don't mind, I took a crack at processing this, then had fun warping it a bit as I didn't like how the right side of the river started higher, then dipped down, it looked a bit out of balance (to me at least). I also took out the two tree stubs that were on the right. This was a total quick, fun edit on my part, just wanted to see how it might look doing this.

93 Nov 24 Comment I also think you've done a great job of capturing the landscape of the Bay Area - from the cloudy skies, to the rolling hills, water and fields.

I agree with Ed regarding the foreground and think you can crop some of it out - It's interesting, but isn't the main focal point in my opinion.

I'd also like to see a bit more of the water to separate it from the foreground and landline on the other side, where the hills are. Could you have taken the image from a bit higher to get that separation?

93 Nov 24 Comment Great use of black and white, feels like an old classic image. I like the person on the bridge, in fact I'd like to see him highlighted a bit more if possible. Nov 17th
93 Nov 24 Comment I keep coming back to look at this image, thinking, wow - how was this done! It's dreamlike! I like how you've processed it with the pinpoint stars, the horizon leading to the clouds and city lights. Really cool shot! Nov 17th
93 Nov 24 Comment I third the comment, good use of the dehaze! And I also agree with Ed and think more details in the treeline would make a stronger image. Nov 17th
93 Nov 24 Comment Love this image, lighting is lovely, composition is well balanced, and great choice of 60 second exposure.

All subjective of course and nits. To me, the bottom left is a bit too dark, I'd like to see a bit more of the shadows there. I also think the middle tree is a bit too bright.

93 Nov 24 Reply Thanks Ed! I agree, the center sun light does need a bit more details. I kept going back and forth on lightening the shoreline so great to hear your perspective. Nov 17th
93 Nov 24 Reply Hi Paul, yes, was on the ice for this shot, I wanted to capture all the great textures and amazing reflections, so ventured out. The water wasn't that deep, so was totally safe (temp was in the 40s). Nov 17th
