    Not quite sure where to put this one but it is a landscape. I was hired by a high end landscape architect to shoot examples of his work for a brochure he was developing.He did beautiful naturalized pools, etc. I tried to approach it as artistically as I could yet still give a good representation of his work. This is one of many I did for him...

    hi dave, i think the reds and greens are a little over saturated. it seems to need some CW rotation also. the pool seems to be leaning left. and a local contrast boost to the elements right around the pool might add a nice touch too. i like the fog in the woods out back. nice touch!

    Hi Harold...You have a point about CW rotation...what threw me was the the right hand post being very straight(at least to my eye) vertically. The colors are a bit strong but I moved them up a bit from the original fearing the image would come out flatter once I resized it. Go figure....

    dave, i think it's coming from distortion. that or either you need tilt/shift capabilities? i think the scene may be beyond the physical capabilities of a regular lens.

    Hey Dave,
    I don't mind the lean because of the lens...but agree with Harold on the saturation. May be a function of save for the web. I like the path placement but the glasses of wine....just don't work for me. Maybe if you chose red wine:D....or preferably beer.......just kidding.....because of the WA lens....it is too minimized and wonder if moving it forward in the frame......would have helped.
