I did not finish answering your question. The original image was .CR2 raw format. I exported a reduced size image in jpeg for use as the "original" here ( in Lightroom I believe.) Exports from Lightroom to jpeg default to sRGB I believe. |

My Canon camera has as its default sRGB color space for raw images which this was. In Lightroom it is converted to Abobe ProPhoto color space. Then in Photoshop it would be retained in ProPhoto unless Photoshop preferences are set to change it to sRGB. |

What is "legal" depends on the use of the image. For PSA Interclub competitions,e.g.: cloning changes are not allowed in Photo-Travel , or in Nature; but are okay in OPEN.
As to ethical considerations, it is an open question. Circa 2000, I believe it was considered to be a "photo-shopped" or fake image. With the advent of digital cameras, the standard view was that only digital manipulations that paralleled what could be done in the darkroom were acceptable; i.e. contrast adjustment (curves), sharpening, and cropping, exposure,e.g. That has changed over time. I would expect that images produced by adding or eliminating elements would still be called "photoshopping" today. I will be interested to hear other opinions. |

Texture and patterns in the rocks are mesmerizing. I think you are right about the foreground weed. Would be tedious to clone it out, but possible. |

Great job of hand-holding the bracketed shots that comprise this notable image! |

Tomotely Plantation is always a scenic and special place. This morning light does bring some highlights to the hanging Spanish moss along the drive. My eye tends to travel to the upper left of the image which is the brightest part of the image. Having had the privilege of photographing this particular locale a number of times, I suggest that the challenge here is to find a lighting condition that emphasizes the elements that your want to emphasize - usually the road and the hanging moss overhead - and leaves the boundary areas unemphasized. |

To me this image is definitely about the collosially appearing wave, or more accurately, the collision of two waves! The energy from the collision is self-evident. The flat light and domination of the wave(s) leave the island and its lighthouse as incidental elements here. I would choose the title to be something more description, e.g. "Collision of Waves". If you wanted the image to be about the Montague Island view as the title implies, then a smaller wave in the foreground would be a good direction, in my humble opinion. |

The image surely conveys a profound sense of cold and desolation so your mission is accomplished! The image is fine as presented. A few thoughts for your consideration on the composition: The sky is certainly supportive with its cloud cover; but the sky is probably not your main interest here so that some of it could be eliminated without harm. The dark, background mountain at right margin is slightly distracting to my eye. I tried out a few different crops to eliminate or minimize that feature, and some work in this area could strengthen the image depending upon your personal preferences and purposes. This is definitely a classic to add to your portfolio! |

Great textures and contour lines featured here! It is easy to get engrossed in the patterns of this image which has plenty of variations over the course of the image to keep the viewer's attention. The pedestrians provide a useful focal point and add to the image. The point of veiw here was well taken from somewhere high up. Your adjustments increased the contrast in a positive direction. |
