Your title is very appropriate. Very.

I wish I could aid you in bettering this, I am sure that there are more accomplished photographers that will do that in their commentary.

Given the time of day/night, I think you did well with the exposure. The composition is good. I really like the moon's reflection just hitting on the edge of the dock. For me, it completes your image's title and suggests something more. Allows for some interpretation, if you will.

The caveat would be the graininess present in the photo. As a suggestion until someone else more qualified comes around, have you looked into any of the tutorials here on the site? That might be a good first step.

As is, I do like this. It is very reminiscent of my own fishing trips and you put me right back with the lures, lines and loons. (Canada, here :) . )

amazing captured. well compostion with ligh, contrast and the nite color....excelent work :)

Great picture.

A great capture of this night scene.The comp looks fine to me and the color with the deep blue is perfect.It does have some "Noise "in it but it is not at all distracting given the darkness..My new desktop.

Thanks a bunch Emily and Brix! Don't know why it had the noise in it.

Purmusic: This was taken in Canada :)

Neamh: Thanks for the compliment. Didn't think it would work well as a desktop being so black.

Very moody and romantic picture. I can feel the remoteness of the lake, but not loneliness. It's an amazing shot for that time of night and location.

Stunning composition! I love the inky blues and black. Very nice work!
