This was taken a couple of weeks ago at a local lake/dam. I fiddled a bit with levels using layers (my first try at using layers).

Any C&C more than welcome. :D

Dale,

Not a bad image - could do with a bit of cropping at the front and maybe try to get the top of the tower away from the horizon line - bit of a conflict there.

Fantastic sky!!

"Top of the tower away from the horizon line"...? Could you explain that one for me?

I love the feel of symetry in this shot.

I like this image a lot. It is very linear and has an interesting feel to it.

In regards to the horizon, I *think* they are referring to the top of the main horizontal line being parallel, (therefore blending in) with the horizon.

Thanks for the comments. I'm glad the symetry effect came through. It was what I was aiming for, along with the dramatic sky (helped by using a graduated filter).
