When we come and visit you in Scotland, I wanna see lots of lochs, because this one is just beautiful.
When you make a photo smaller in size, you always looses some sharpness. Just hit the sharpen button and see what happens. It doesn't bother me at all in this photo though.

Great photo! I would love to see more of your shots from this area. This shot makes me want to go up to the lake and enjoy the reflections.

Hi Stefan,
I think what you're seeing is a combination of poor scanner results and my inexperience with correcting colours, sharpening, etc.
The uploaded scans are rarely quite as nice as the original slides I find.
Cheers
Chris

There is something about some of your images that bother me in the quality of the colors and their general sharpness. Do your scans accurately represent your prints? Have you tried scanning a negative, or just a different flatbed scanner for the prints?
On the composition in this image - cropping a bit of the left side would help this view IMHO. It also looks lie the highlights on the cloud and stone are very nearly blown out (overexposed...).

Excellent capture Chris. Exposure is just about as perfect as can get and composition is just right. Personally, I think the cloud adds flavor to the overall composition so I wouldn't have considered excluding it, even if a good wind was blowing it away.
All of your work is great!
Isaac

The foreground boulder is a nice touch.
Please see my autobiography.

Hi,
Craig - thanks for your comments - what an amazing transition you managed with that cloudscape! This image was USM'd, but I'm a novice at applying it and never quite sure how much to use. Perhaps I need more in this case!
Matej - I will first admit that the "trek" to get this shot was literally 100 yards out of the car, just off one of the fantastic roads we have in Scotland. Having seen the mirror loch and the light, I drove up the road looking for some decent foreground and saw the rock. That said, the road to get here _is_ quite a trek!
Secondly, the day was _utterly_ flat calm, so that cloud wasn't going anywhere fast... to see how calm it was, that water is a sea loch (scottish for lake) - ie it's inland a short distance but opens into a wide mouth directly to the sea. Despite that, it was like glass as you can see!
Chris

Lovely scenery, I'm sure it was worth the trek.
Being the nitpicker that I sometimes am, and considering the wonderful skies in your other images, I shall ask, which way were the clouds moving? Assuming that the light wasn't fading too quickly (and I know this is a strong assumption, and if incorrect, then please ignore this entire tirade), could you have waited a few minutes either to have more clouds in the sky, or to have that one cloud disappear? It does seem to draw more attention than it perhaps should.
On the other hand, maybe the white cloud acts as a counterbalance to the bright area on the rock in the foreground? Hmmmm. What do you think?

Chris-- I'm going to try and upload the "original" that my "Sunscape" was based on-- amazing difference now that I look at both. What attracted me to this formation initially was simply the form. Cheers. Craig

Hi Chris; this is a very nice composition with very nice colors. You do have a niuce varied portfolio. If I were to offer a suggestion for improvement here-- this image is a bit soft, so after converting to 72 dpi for upload, use the sharpening command for more cripness and detail. You should immediately see the difference on your monitor. I learned that the hard way myself. Thanks for your nice comments/rating of my Sunscape photo-- you asked about the original, and I will try to upload it here for you when I get to my other computer (I'm at a laptop now). Cheers. Craig
