[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is a view on the ferry which can be found on the Braasemermeer (lake). It helps you to the other side.

What do you think: is this photo okay or not?

To answer this, look in the workshop, in which I uploaded the original image.
It was a boring exposure. I copied the image to a layer and multiplied it. Then I repeated this, resulting in this image.
Much more sky, isn't it? I couldn't believe this was actualy IN the original image.

But what about the end-result? Does it has an 'over processed' look now?

Hallo Joop.
Veel werk van gemaakt, maar het origineel valt best wel mee.
Ik denk dat je deze niet had moeten verscherpen, maakt het wat onnatuurlijk.
Oke, je was er toch maar mooi zoet me, toch ?
Dubbele smiley voor de moeite. haha
Groeten van Jan

hello Joop!
lovely place! Beautiful natural colors, lights and details! Good composition!
Best regards, Zorica

Hi Joop,

Het origineel was zeker niet verkeerd, heel relaxed en natuurlijk en typisch Nederland.

Deze vind ik wel wat "opgewekter" eruit zien -
het zal wel een persoonlijke smaak zijn, ik vind deze leuk.

Hi Joop,

Nee, dit doet het niet voor mij. Voor mij is het te over-processed en dan vooral in de wolken en het water en de witte dakranden. Een paar nuances had ik mooi gevonden, maar dit is toch echt teveel.

Groeten,
Dennis

Top natuurlijk man
Prachtig!!
Groet
John

Hello Joop! I like the effect, it looks processed but at the same time it looks very good. Well done, thanks!

Mario

This is a really nice capture, well composed and good contrast, well done!

Hoi Joop,
To flop or not, that's the question. No flop as far as I'm concerned! Like you PP work here although the saturation is a tad too much. Nevertheless you succeed to create an attractive image of the alway hectic Braasemermeer ferry :-)

Hello Joop

Beautiful visual!
I like the scene and of the landscape.
Looking at their WS I see that this perfectly arrived
well in the one that you wanted to see.
The colors, the details and the light!
Beautiful natural colors, lights and details!
Good composition!
Congratulations.

I think you have done a good work; of course there is something of unnatural in the light (did you remember the American movie of the fifties...?), but it is pleasant and a bit fairy.
I say "yes".
