Theme: Fishing Bridge Reflection at Dawn

This was at Yellowstone last August. I used Topaz Simplify water color effects, did some masking, then used brush strokes and underpainting in CS4. Thanks for looking.

Hey Cindy, Pleasing image with warm, rich colors and a nice fog bank.Good comp which takes you from the foreground to the sky. Nicely handled!

an absotutely posilively beautiful image Cindy. Topaz came through here just
right along with your control. I think it begs a more horizontal crop and the
very top of sky and a bit of foreground are easily cropped with a nice result
placing horizon on a better position......IMHO

beautiful work....may be a winner this week!!

Thanks to both Daves.

I do like your crop, Dave. Thanks for showing me that.

Cindy, Really nice looking colors and the crop off the bottom is perfect. I really like the effect applied. It has a soft foggy look! Well done.

Very nice work Cindy. Love those colors. Dave's repost is really enhancing!

Cindy, this is so easy on the eye and simply beautiful. I like the crop best, but either way this would make a very nice print.

Cindy, Like the simplicity of this. Lovely colors, and Dave's crop is perfect. Very peaceful feel!

Cindy - this is a beautiful image. It is so peaceful to look at - I love the effect:)

Beautiful composition, Cindy. So many nice elements in this image. Love the colors.

Thanks to all for your comments.

The colors are beautiful and your technique impressive. I do like the crop of the sky as it moves the focus to the water more. Congrats.

Cindy, I like your new avatar-Nice to see a face with the name!!

Thanks, Denise. I've been meaning to change it for a while, and finally found a photo to use.

Nice colours and mood Cindy. For my taste I would take just a bit off the bottom. Well done.

Thanks, Jackie.
