Description

Going for that timeless, lazy, bygone days look. I hope I came close. (EDIT: I almost forgot to add that the original image was a bit on the flat side, so I intentionally pushed it to get this contrasty look. I know I lost a bit of detail in the highlights and shadows, but I feel it added to the overall mood.)

No, you didn't come close - you hit it right on the button! If it wern't for the modern boat this could have been taken in the 19th century - quite excellent indeed!

Love the golden colours and especially the composition in this one as it does bring the old times to life. :~)

It does bring back memories of the days of my youth (kid fishing). I'm also that guy with the boat loading and unloading my fishing gear. Is that waves in the background? Excellent presentation of the fisherman and the sea (lake). Aloha

I love the tone, the mood and the framing/cropping here but this is a 'lil too bright for my taste! It's actually hard to look at this cos it hurts my eyes! But it might be my monitor settings so it's hard to tell if it's ur image or my comp!
