I like the tone and the texture of the wood, and I rather like the way this is composed so that the clouds look like smoke coming from the right 'stack', however this composition as a whole doesn't really do anything for me.
Very Cool...love the cloud and the buildings in the background. Would you mind sharing your processing method with us? The tones and details are absolutely wonderful!
Posts like this makes us hate you that much more. :)
This is just what I needed to get me outside to take pictures before the weekend. Thanks.

when the picture first loaded up, my reaction was "whoa". its confusion mixed with curiosity that gave me that reaction. amazing shot, i love the black and white textures and mixes of color. simply said, its a great photo
Lee: the saturation was increased using the Channel mixer after which it was used again to extract the red channel. I also used two Curves, one to up the contrast and another to tone the image.
mark: no, you're right. I've put up a new version that only applies the noise reduction to the sky.

and ¿where are you gonna take that pictures? it isnot at franklin, chrisboy?
Good perspective of course, but ther's something strange on right side... wooden is perfect, but other parties seem blurred... what's happened? And why an RGB file? I can't undestand if you want show us a B&W picture or a blu toned photo (here there is at less 20% more of cyan -CMYK mode-)...
bobr: the stuff that looks like water is actually wet sand, so no, swimming wasn't involved ;-)
sandro: I'm not sure what you mean about some bits being blurred. As for why this is an RGB file: if it wasn't it would be a black and white image rather than a toned one.

David,
just WOW for this shot and actually for all your photos. amazing.
Thank you for it !
how lot you have used PS or another editor to get such tones ???
Also,, if you don't mind, would like to ask :) how it possible to made design the same as you have in comments popup and how to made background colours changable ( "white + grey + dark + black" ) ?
Valerij: the styleswitcher uses a version of this script.
jcyrhs: rather than adjust the RGB curve you select one of the sub-channels – red, green or blue – and just change that. In this case it involved a slight increase to the midtones for the blue and green channels.
Same as Lee.
I love the color tone and it would be great if you could let us know, how do you got this great colors :)

wow, this is incredible. I can't believe you got so much detail at f8.
Great picture. The depth and detail is very good.

Cheers,
its a pretty neat shot, but am i crazy or do i see a bit too much noise reduction? the big thingy in the foreground looks unaturally smooth.
Also, whats with all the specks in the water? Sorta looks odd.
may i see, is that the window at requem movie me little dreamer.si lo es:¿where is your hut?.

I have nothing overly constructive to say after two glasses of nice wine other than this is a simply spectacular shot.
Great shot once again, Dave! The cool tones really work well with the rusted metal and rotting wood.
I'm curious: did you swim out there? There appears to be quite a distance of water between you and the shore.
Wonderful wide-angle shot!
Oooh, this is wonderful, Dave - very striking. I'm not really sure why, but this is my favorite Chromasia shot in a while.
this is amazing! the clouds behind, give a gr8 feel to the two posts!
very nice. your work is amazing! i really like the clouds on this one
Very nice shot, I really like what you did here.

MAY PEACE BE UPON YOUR SOULS, HEARTS, MINDS, AND BODIES...AMEN.
Wow dave. This is an excellent shot. SO much details...
btw, how do you add tones using curve? pardon me for asking...

Hard detail on smooth creamy goodness. I like it!
Very nice b&w photo.
dark room effected?
Ohhhh.
very nice
