Gosh, the colors on the water this day were gorgeous! This was right when the yellow leaved trees were at their peak with a bit of red thrown in for good measure.
Regular processing on this one except I add a slight surface blur to most of my water images before I sharpen them because they don't take well to noise reduction - it tends to leave very blurry patches on these kind of images. I've found a round of surface blur will take out some of the noise without blurring it over quite as much.

Jules, This is one of my favorites of yours. Beautiful color combo and those flames in the water look like "old school" tatoo flames that I just love!

Denise, that's so funny...I thought the same thing. Looks like a bad paint job on someone's beat up pick up truck. ;)
Glad you all liked this one...I think it's going to be one of my favorites as well. Might have to blow this one up and print it.

Gorgeous! I do hope you print it and put it on the wall! Fantastic, glowing colors. Simple in color and design. Strong diagonal. Love everything about it.
