The rising of Lake Kinneret's (ISRAEL) water level presented me with this minimalist picture. The opposite shore and sky almost blend together, leaving the rock by its self alone on the lake. This was taken with a Pentex Kx, iso 200; F13 at 8 sec; late afternoon in March 2011.

Excellent picture. The rock makes a great subject, and the mist adds a lot. Three things that I think would make it better would be 1. Make it B&W (or at least lessen the blue) 2. Add some contrast. It would help create more mood in the picture. 3. You can't change this now (unless you crop), but next time position the rock away from the center and more into a corner. Nonetheless, this is definitely one of my favorites I've seen in the contests entrants.

I can see how it might be possible for a man to look down upon earth and be an atheist, but I cannot conceive how he could look up into the heavens and say there is no God. - Abraham Lincoln

That is one lonely looking rock in the middle of the lake!

A very fine minimalist image. As a critique, I see some lens spots on the image; a lens cleaning will help future captures. Thad

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine
