Its lovely. It has an un-natural quality that still remains strangely real. The interest of the fisherman really makes this image to me, though maybe a little less centred would have been better. Not sure but just an idea.

Care to share the PP you did on this to get it looking like this? Particularly the sky.

Nice shot. I'm sure you must have enhanced the colors, as it is too pretty to be real.

Wow, thanks for all the comments. Yes there is quite a bit of PP on this image. Mostly CC and specific sharpening in targeted areas.
I'm a big fan of the movie "Amelie" and although I do love "real" photos and greatly appreciate shots without any PP, it's just not very interesting to ME.
I love enhanced reality, I love when an artist takes something and makes it his or her own.
That extra edge I guess. Thanks for the imput, after staring at an image in PP for hours on end it can be very easy to lose perspective.
