Shoreline blur

[Cheryl Slechta]

No bugs yet. This is a blur I did this winter of the shoreline at the lake near my house. I rotated the lens clockwise - this is the vegetation on shore and the water. I'm undecided about the crop (and actuallly the whole image) but I keep coming back to it so decided to post and get some other feedback. I used Nik Reflector effect to add some lighting on the left and slight Topaz Smooth and Flat.

Thanks for looking. C&C welcome:)

Cheryl, I like the softness to the lines and the curved comp. I might tone down the URC if it were mine but the placement of the darks in the image are nice. I like it:)

I like it too, the soft colors and soft light. The only thing that bugs me--please pardon the Weekly Theme pun--is that some of the lines seem to be straight and some curved.... I like the curved lines better.

Cheryl, I like the colors and the curvy blur. The angle of the arcs makes for an interesting image and I like the composition. Agree with Denise about that brighter corner, just a bit less would be cool.

I opened this and thought I was falling out of my chair what a great effect you've created! I'm having so much fun on this forum and you folks are giving me new ideas to work on when I'm out playing in the woods.:D
