LOD has really made me think about editing and cropping and framing, blah blah.
so here it is, the riverbank, very little crop as I feel I got it right in Camera, tonemapped, of cause, some adjustment to colour but that is all, this scene was totally awsome and I think I could never capture the true beauty of this place, you just have to go there YOURSELF and see it.
This is a golf course so take your clubs with you..
est score - 6.6
dream score - anything over a 7 is always a dream for me.
Good luck mpeters or jaime I hope to kick your ass with this shot.

If the foreground greens had not been pushed tot he point of being cartoonish, I bet this would have made top 10. A beautifully-seen scene, so to speak :-)
I bet this would be a beautiful photo ... even without over processing it. To me, it's just too "unreal". The greens are over saturated, the water and grass are both over sharpened. The sky and clouds are too dark. (hint: generally any kind of reflection will be darker than the original, especially reflection off of a water surface, because some of the light is lost - but in this image, the reflection is brighter than the sky)
Turn the processing down just a bit and it'll do fine.
