Silent Waters by susale

Silent Waters

I´ve waited for these weather conditions for a long time to get this shot. On wednesday I was running a bit late and had no time to go shoot this spot even thou it was a perfect foggy morning, but at least I had time for that other pic. I´m very happy that I had some spare time this morning.

Completely SOOC.

@sturnus Thank you very much Carol
September 7th, 2013  
instant fav, such a beautiful shot, really like the still water and the reflections
September 7th, 2013  
This is really beautiful.

I wondered what it would look like in b&w, and took the liberty of downloading and editing it. See what you think, using this recipe:
Convert to RGB channel layers;
Hide or delete all but the red layer;
Add a duplicated layer above that red layer;
Set the new layer's mode to overlay.

I think it looks even better, but I'd love to know what you think.
September 7th, 2013  
@kaesebiscuit Oh that's quite ok, thank you for the interest. You know I really don't understand any of what you are saying about the processing...but I would be very interested to see the version you made out of this....so maybe you could email it to me? Or upload it in your album for a day before you project started just long enough for me to see it?
September 7th, 2013  
@ness50 Thank you Ness very much
September 7th, 2013  
I'll email it to you if you like. Send me your email address by email, if you can work out my address out from my profile, or post your address here and you can delete the post afterwards.
September 7th, 2013  
@kaesebiscuit Actually I'd like you to email it to me, is that okey for you? Do you still have that version or did you delete it already.
September 7th, 2013  
@susale Sure. I still have it, yes.
September 7th, 2013  
@kaesebiscuit I really can't work out your adress, I'm not sober;-) Okey here is what we're going to do, I'll post my email address randomly in chocen pic of your album and I trust you delete it as soon as you'll get it :)
September 7th, 2013  
@susale not sober?! lol! Okay, do that and I'll delete your post once I've got it.
September 7th, 2013  
@kaesebiscuit Really yeah, I've drank one beer but cos I've not drinken any alcohol for a while, it pretty much feels like I've drank a douzen, lol. I'm enjoying the last warm days of the summer at the cottage, it's not like I'm usually drunk at this time of the day.
September 7th, 2013  
@kaesebiscuit Thank you for the versions, I'll tell you what I think when I get home and see it on screen.
September 7th, 2013  
@susale Well I'm the original "lightweight" where alcohol is concerned. As I say, one sniff of the bar lady's apron and I'm anybody's. Two sniffs and I'm everybody's. Luckily, I'm sober! :-D
September 7th, 2013  
@susale You're welcome :)
September 7th, 2013  
@kaesebiscuit Lol, well luckily it's not like that for me, I'm never easy.
September 7th, 2013  
Wow like a bonsai tree. Beautiful subject and the perfect conditions to shoot it. Now I don't mind the warm tones at all, because this doesn't look very Finn to me anyway :) On the contrary, I like the mood the warm tones give to this shot. Those rocks are cool, but maybe their shape is too geometric vs. the organic shapes of the bonsai island. How about turning this 90 degrees to left, the island would look like a lady with a long slim dress and a bad hair day :-) Faving.
September 7th, 2013  
Ii really love the mood here, another susale special ! Fav :-)
September 8th, 2013

@soozieqt Thank you very much Susan and thank you for visiting my project, very much appreciated

@edie Thank you Edie, and thank you for the visit and for the fav, both appreciated so much

@janim Thank you so very much Jani, interesting suggestion, this looks real intriguing flipped, bad hair day, lol! I see your point about the rocks, I tell you what, this place is pretty much on my way to work, so I´ll reshoot this some morning next week without the rocks, postaan vaikka sitten vaan flickeriin, jos en tänne.
