I was adjusting this in PS and after staring at it far too long,I noticed the position of the girl and her arms, so thought do a crop and a caption.Heck with the gallery, unless someone thinks it could be ok full image. Had it sepia. Original was in the fog and barely visible. Anyways this is what I ruined it with.

"The happiness of a man in this life does not consist in the absence but in the mastery of his passions."

How much more fog are we talking about? And I assume that she would keep her thoughts to herself in the gallery? LOL

"Keep smiling, it makes people wonder what you're up to."

LOL...so, did she? ;] It is a nice image Doug, but a bit dark and not quite what I'd expect to see in you gallery, overal quality wise. But still a fun shot and I really like the fog effect and small boat in the distance.

Well the gallery image was going to be like this. No No I just did this other for fun. Was way too late I guess.

"The happiness of a man in this life does not consist in the absence but in the mastery of his passions."

or this

"The happiness of a man in this life does not consist in the absence but in the mastery of his passions."

I like the first one better because it's not as dark as the cropped one. The first image also have a better composition. There's something about having the object centered that makes it less interesting...in art circles you talk about the Golden Mean. It makes a picture more interesting...that's the easy way to discribe it. All about where we focus when we view any image really.

"Keep smiling, it makes people wonder what you're up to."

The one in post 4 for sure. yes, golden mean and all that. :) Now that one is dBgrahix gallery worthy! :)

LOL.. ;] maybe use 4 & layer in the background rower of 6

#4 definitely...minimalist and the compo is superb! #6 seems too centered and tight (JMHO!)
