Three Stumps

View of three stumps in Trillium Lake at sunset. Mt. Hood in reflection.

Nice shot, looks like your shore needs to be straightened a little and I think it might look a little better if the stumps weren't right in the center of the image. Keep at it!

Nice reflection though. Almost tells a story.

Thanks for your comments. I agree, I should have framed the stumps + reflection differently. Unfortunately, I was loosing the red sunset light fast.
I can't do much with the present image w/o losing the reflection.

Straightened and cropped:

Nice shot. Not sure if you meant for it, but it looks a little grainy around the stumps, and I think I would bump up the contrast or the blacks a bit to give it a little more punch.

Image straightened, cropped, green and blue boosted, and noise reduction w/o sharpening applied. Still too grainy ? Perhaps, but I'm not sure it is a problem. Your thoughts.
