A local fishing pier, obviously abandoned and time-worn. Shot was cropped slightly on the left and top, the I applied Feivel's Gothic Glow (a PS action) to achieve the effect I wanted. It is probably no competition for the stellar talent of DPC but I am rather fond of the mood and the serenity of that particular moment.

Laurie, how did I know this was your photo! I think it's neat you start to learn people's style here and can guess who did what. Great job on your placing!
I like this pic very much. It has a dreamy feel to it, very creative. Just remember that as long as YOU are happy with your pictures that is all that really matters. They're not chocolate cookies, they dont have to please everyone ;)

A little on the over-processed side for my taste, but still a great composition with a lot of warmth in the shot. Nicely done Laurie.
OK, changed my mind, as it has grown on me. ((9))
I like the exposition and light. The only downpoint is that it looks overprocessed. My guess would be too much use of shadow and highlight. Good shot overall (6)
The photo has a funny look to it like its been over edited (over sharpened) or something similar. A beautiful shot that really allows the mind to wonder which is very rare on this site. <7>
* Will review this photo again on another pc to see if its this monitor
