Both Greg (gjwahl) and Owde Bob suggested that I try cropping out the very bland sky from yesterday's post... I did and I think it looks lots better... Let me know what you think.

I'm not expressing anything other than my own humble opinion, Mary, but I think you did a great job. The boat is the star of the show, and now the environs complement it without drawing your eyes away from it. Just gorgeous -- and it's already on my desktop!

Sorry that I haven't been commenting more. Just got lazy? But I did look at most of them. And again, thanks to all of you for your comments on mine.

Sorry! I liked it better with the sky--the blue-green trees were more accentuated that way.
No matter, this is a class act.

Outstanding colors...I haven't seen the original, but he crop seems to help focus more on the water and especially the boat. Very well done!!

Sorry to all...I haven't been commenting as much as I would like to lately. I'm a 9 to 5er again (actually more like 8:15 to 7:30 these days!!) Don't worry, I still see all of your wonderful posts, if only for a second.
Hey Mary,
I do prefer this one over the other,
Now we are really looking into the image instead of having an overview and trying to figure out all the parts in the landscape, (~8
It may sound strange but I prefer the colors in this one, I think the lack of dull colors in the background draws much more attention on the warm and lovely colors in the foreground,
Beautifully done,
Thanks for sharing
Warm regards
Tim

I love this. I did like the sky, but this one is very cool, too. Postcard anyone?!

A great suggestion they made, and good of you to follow through. It is a marked improvement. Excellent shot! I'm a sucker for pretty much anything with a boat in it...and this one really grabbed my eye!

Taking the sky out really did warm the photo up. Really like this one even better than the first! Nice job! :o)

I really like this cropped in closer. Makes the boat really stand out in the amazing background.

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round?? Picture Purrrfect .
Ya know ...
First, your composition is excellent Mary ... but, you know that.
The colours are indeed very warm ... but, you know that as we do as well.
The one thing that has given me some pause in viewing your shots not dissimilar to this ... is that there are at times present, one element that seems to evoke a more visceral reaction from me ... and I am not entirely sure why.
The lone ... boat.
Anchored and separate from attachment to the shore, the land ... everything but ... that single line that dives below the waters' surface.
Yet, the setting is beautiful, tranquil ... serene.
Curious then ... any of my above drivel strike a chord?
*ponders some more*
Great lines, but ... you know that.
I do prefer this one that little bit more. Think that the sky in the other was not so much a composition breaker as it was, at least for me ... a little ... a little blown out in the upper left.
Regardless ... this is an excellent shot.
Well done and thanks for sharing this particular look through your lens. It is indeed a powerful and beautiful image to me.

I love this shot. To me it's relaxing, and stirs the desire to take my canoe out and go paddle.
