This is a rework of my on June 24th, 2009 posted Beauty & Grace image. I've intensified the colors and contrast and improved other minor things somewhat. In my humble opinion this one is better than the previous one.

I'm curious for your opinion. Thank you in advance for any reply.

It looks definitely better than the previous one Cornelius. The clarity, colours and sharpness are much better here. A beautiful scene especially with the swan there.

I like the work you've done Mr C. I tend to favour darker tones and higher contrast so this is right up my aesthetic alley. :)

The color and contrast are much improved, Mr. C. Hard to believe that you could actually improve on one of your shots. They are all so beautiful.

Je bezorgt me weer een hoop werk, Cornelius !, moet ik je
hele gallery weer (om) doorspitten om de originele foto te vinden...lol !
Maar goed, ik kan nu vergelijken, en ik kan je zeggen dat
je er naar ook naar mijn smaak de 'veranderingen' cq verbeteringen, hebt gedaan !
De kleur (over) verzadiging en contrast vind ik al een groot pluspunt, maar zoals je weet is dat zolangzamerhand mijn 'handelsmerk' geworden.
Bijzonder fraaie foto, Amigo !

EDIT
Sorry, Cornelius, zie nu dat je een link erbij hebt gezet !

I like it much better Sea. It really makes it come to life. I think Caruso has been encouraging you with his wonderful swan shots. The darker frame looks good too. Good rework.
Good health to you and yours.

Beautiful image Cornelius and I think an improvement on the original. I like the more intense colours and the ripples in the water are improved as well.

Mr C - Excellent rework. I concur that the saturation and contrast make this photo an improvement over the previous post. Kudos good friend. Thad

Oh yes, the heightened color makes a wonderful difference... I like the diagonal line between the foliage and the water and the presence of the swan makes it even richer.

Well studied composition. The diagonal split between water and flowers adds beauty to the capture. A favorite.
