I agree with the simplicity and the dream like effect of the mist really make the picture. The contrasts work well, definitely worth hanging on the wall :!:

Great shot Michael. The barely visible trees in the background really add to the spooky atmosphere. Very nice :D

Oh yes... I like this... Misty, dreamy, excellent atmosphere, well captured and tasteful PP... Getting a simple image is a surprisingly tricky, complex thing but it's worked well here...

Tempted to maybe crop the top slightly???

Very nice comp and B+W.

I can't help but wonder if only it was a touch sharper, but then I don't know if that would detract from the feel.

I think sharpness might kill this image Dion.

Its emotive - its simple - its great. Well done Dargen!

Hey, maybe I had better process the rest of them. :shock:
Thanks very much for the positive comments members. It means a lot to me. I still feel very much a rank amateur in this comapny.

Nice simple and clean image.

Just add a gondala and a poleman wearing a heavy hooded cloak and it would round out the eerieness of that image.

What a great image Dargan. There is a touch of 'Jackson Pollock' in your style :) (Which is a good thing)
