40 Dec 24 Comment You certainly were determined to get the shot! Nice image of the mountain with the reflections in the still lake. I am not sure about the grass foreground, and for me the gated staging isn't very attractive. Perhaps a shot from the left or right might have worked better? Dec 19th
40 Dec 24 Comment Interesting bridge, it's seen better days. The hand rail has also gone. Not sure if its real but the horizon looks tilted - might be better to straighten it. I feel that I want to see more of the surrounding area to provide some context and wonder if a wider angle would be better. Dec 19th
40 Dec 24 Comment Nice landscape although the horse is not in a great pose but nothing you can do. I think always worthwhile shooting from the coach or train - you never know if you'll be coming back - there might not be a second chance. Shorter shutter speed would be better.
I worked on it in Topaz sharpening and blur removal; also darkened the highlights and added some texture and it looks a bit better. Maybe something not right with your copy of Topaz. Perhaps ask the manufacturer?		 Dec 14th
40 Dec 24 Comment I find this confusing and feel it would have worked better with a wider lens to show the context of the reflection. Dec 14th
40 Dec 24 Comment Lovely picture, I like Don's version with the signs cloned out and Nigel's with the floor straightened. Dec 14th

40 Dec 24 Comment Your post processing looks nice to me, I might be tempted to crop off some of the empty right hand side.

There is no right or wrong way to process. My workflow was:
in LR Straighten Horizon, in PS clone out the rope and stake and the black lumps in foreground. Back in LR RB > Auto, Dehaze +25, Sharpening +50, Radius 1.0, Detail 25, Noise Reduction 50, Highlights -80, Shadows +53, Crop off most of the bottom, Sharpen again in Topaz AI (might ignore this step in retrospect) OOF very noisy, Remove Blur 82, Suppress Noise 66. Back in LR clone out 2 dust spots. I don't think this is better than yours just different. 		Dec 14th
