hdr stitched panoramic of six total shots, i drew the little red boat in, i'm pretty sure it's within the rules and my shot needed a little something. duotone black and white-ish, dodging, burning, cloned out a chunk of distrating land on the left side, usm, save and submit. i'll hopefully ride the tidal wave of awesome shots for this challenge and score well, but obviously not a contender. this challenge got me out shooting more than most and i shot a ton of great stuff unrelated to this challenge but good for the portfolio. pre challenge guess of 6.0 happy voting!!

As much as I detest selective desat it actually works here, good you didn´t use a really strong screaming red color but a low saturation red.

oh, another great picture gone gimmicky. What a great chance for an Ansel Adams style wonderful shot. Sorry, I think the red sail detracts from the rest of the shot.

Nicely done. I'm plus/minus about the selective desat approach. 7

Wonderful BW treatment with dramatic clouds and technically very well done. Not fond of the red sail and feel it is a distraction. Composition and framing are not as strong as it might be but it is a 'good' image. I'm working on a multi-image landscape panorama right now and your image reminds me of it because of your wide but narrow presentation which is common of panoramas. Don't know if yours is a multi-image panorama but I don't want mine to 'look' like a panorama. If interested I will share my work with you if I can ever get it 'right' and you are interested. LOL!!!
