Hi Darryl she said shyly scuffing her foot. I think this is beautiful and I am going to put it my favorites.

Haha, never ceasing to amaze, Darryl. What a beauty, I love the dark calm~

Thank you Sally and Josh. Hehe, I will not post a pic of the blisters that accompany this shot-)

Shut up!!! This is just fantastic, lol. Wonderful shot my friend!

Awesome shot, love the sillouettes and the stillness and serenity of the scene. The pixelation around the center rock bothers me a lil bit, but I'm always noticing the little things lol. Other than that, perfect, I like the color gradients in the sky and water.

You just keep outdoing yourself, Darryl, and this D10F is no exception to that rule. Excellent shot to combine serenity and drama so effectively.

Fantastic pic, 9/10! Only reason it isn't a 10 (imho) would be the .. weirdness.. around the top of the tree-line, and the centre rock.. Any chance of uploading a cleaned up version? Seriously, apart from those two little issues, it's a perfect pic..

Thank you June, Anthony and Mary:-) Who would have the nerve to tell someone to shut up...other than a great friend. And no this is not an invitation lol. Anthony, thanks for noticing that and saying something...wasn't sure if it would get noticed hehe. May have to rework this eh...do some fancy blemish painting. Any thoughts? Mary it was quite serene except for the bad loon calls I was attempting;-)

Ah so it was the bird calls that kept everyone in hiding for such a quiet and serene picture! LOL Another job well done.

Thank you Manik and Jill. Manik I will see if I can clean that up...I would have given it a 7 lol. Jill, I sure hope others weren't around...the water was very warm and the echoes in the area were incredible. Must have heard 4 repeats and my dogs didn't know where to go when I called them hehe;-)

Another amazing shot. I love the way the trees are silhouetted and the reflection of the beautiful sunset on the lake. So is patience the key to getting a great shot?

Thank you Nicky...patience works well if you have nothing else to photograph:-)

Marvelous and amazing shot!!

still amazed by these shots! truly magical! an awesome capture Darryl

Thank you Joost and Lucy:-)

Nice image Darryl, maybe I'll take my son here one day! Great capture. you got a 10 from me and in my favs. Thanks for sharing this with us Darryl.

Thank you Terry...guarantee you and your son will have a good time:-)

fantastic image! what an amazing shot!! i love this one.

Thank you David:-)

Ya, any free software the comes with digital cameras has some kind of "remove blemish" brush or function. I use the one in MGI photosuite to remove pixelation from pics or smooth edges. Not its intended use but hey gotta use what you have lol

Thanks Anthony...I did use Neat Image to remove the noise that my camera loves to put in those low light images. That may be where the pixelation came from. Have a go at a rework if you like...I made a bigger mess when iI tried to spruce it up last night:-)

i like this picture mayne. i like to go there to. 10 for this one.

whan caedes said there may not be another 99, this one might just be one

Thank you Virginia and Chris. Try talking your parents into taking you camping there;-)

Whoa!

Thank you RealMauro:-)

Marvelous, gorgeous!!!!!!! Great shot, I like there is just a few light, enough for the nice reflection, good work Darryl.

Thank you Evelyn:-)

Beautiful shot, Darryl. Another one to illustrate a fairy story....

Thank you Simon:-)

Did you use a sharp filter?
This is a marvelous picture, Darryl. Just a little too sharped, maybe :-)

Thank you Pierre... I think it may have been Neat Image.

Yes, maybe. We can see the effect around the little island, in the foreground.
Where do you find so beautiful picture? Westwood? ;-)

Pierre, Shannon and I went camping last week and captured the shot in the geographic center of Vancouver Island at about 1000 meters. Haven't found a lake I didn't like yet;-) Wish I could get a shot without grain at this time of day. Any helpful hints besides a new camera?

That's photography!!? haha nice job man. (I have an image named Father and Son ..ironic).

Thank you Sean! Your comment means alot:-) Going to go see your image!

Very nice picture! 9/10, and in favorites for me. The colors are outstanding!

Hey Darryl -- this is still making the voting rounds. Got a high mark from me. Very surreal look to this. Excellent job...Bill
